Windows 10: Windows started giving me Air Quality Index... sometimes...

With a recent update it started showing the temperature. Now it shows the air quality index, but only sporadically. Is this by the developers wishes?

Windows Index won't start

Hi Edward,

Corrupted search catalog files might be a possible cause why you are experiencing an issue with stating the Windows index. To address this concern, we suggest rebuilding your search catalog. Doing so can repair search results and indexing of your Microsoft
Windows and Microsoft Office system data files.

Follow these steps to rebuild the search catalog:

• Open Control Panel.
• In the Search box, type Indexing, and then choose Indexing Options.
• Click on Troubleshoot search and indexing.
• Answer the prompts to successfully run the troubleshooter.

If the same issue persists, we suggest performing the following troubleshooting methods:

Method 1:

Run the System File Checker tool. It is a utility that allows users to
scan for corruptions in Windows system and restore corrupted files. The link contains further information about how to run the System File Checker tool.

Method 2:

Run the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool. This tool will automatically repair the components of your Windows operating system and records the corruptions to the log file.

To run the DISM tool, follow these steps:

• Using Search, type Command Prompt.
• Right-click on Command Prompt on the search results and then select Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password or click Yes.
  
• In the Command Prompt window, type DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth, and then hit Enter.
  
• Once the scan is finished, restart your computer.
