Search bar
Search bar
I just installed the latest update for Windows 10 yesterday and noticed a problem. When I type in the search bar for an app I want to launch, it finds it but doesn’t open it properly—click it and you can’t even right-click. I have to scroll down manually after clicking Start to find what I need. Is there a way to fix this issue?
I've been working through this too, mostly with Windows apps like the calculator. Everything else seems normal. If you re-register Cortana, it might help. Try running PowerShell as admin and use Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}. It didn't work for me, but worth a try.
You need to re-enable Cortana by turning it back on. Since you haven’t used it much, simply restart the device or go into settings and toggle it on again.
Completely eliminating Cortana stops the search from proceeding. The instructions on how to re-register are mentioned in my very first post. Please remember to quote what I say so you stay informed.
