I have a problem - can't search Windows Search. Someone help me? I have been doing troubleshooting and writing has not been resolved. Windows Search Search bar doesn't work and in file explorer (I wanted to search in file explorer for search and it doesn't work either). What to do...

Try to close the search engine process in the task manager

Run powershell as administrator - a dark blue window - a prompt will pop up with a construct in front of it: Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboardPS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Then copy and paste this lower code into the powershel window, e.g. holding shift, click with two fingers on the trackpad or shift and right. Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboardGet-AppxPackage Microsoft.Windows.Cortana | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml} They spent a while, restart the computer. See if it helped

Unfortunately, it did not help me and I still have a problem

Insert FRST logs as attachments.

The damage is deeper. Before you attach the logs (I'll write them in a moment), run cmd as an administrator and in the black console, type: Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboardchkdsk /f c: Restart the computer and then cmd again as administrator and the command: Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboarddism /online /cleanup-image /start component cleanup dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth sfc /scannow Record the time of completion of the last operation and attach the system event log (compmgmt.msc / s) selecting all of them with shift and end, right save all or selected selected events - save to evtx file and attach.

Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboard
Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.Windows.Cortana | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

The damage is deeper. Before you attach the logs (I'll write them in a moment), run cmd as an administrator and in the black console, type:

Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboard
chkdsk /f c:

Restart the computer and then cmd again as administrator and the command:

Code: text Expand Select all Copy to clipboard
dism /online /cleanup-image /start component cleanup dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth sfc /scannow

Record the time of completion of the last operation and attach the system event log (compmgmt.msc / s) selecting all of them with shift and end, right save all or selected selected events - save to evtx file and attach. Attach two more log files - folders c: \ windows \ logs \ cbs ic: \ windows \ logs \ dism

I didn't do that

the search engine started working when there was some configuration after the configuration, I clicked the search button and it started working.

Topic summary

The user reported an issue with Windows Search not functioning on their Lenovo laptop running Windows 10. Initial troubleshooting steps included closing the "search engine" process in Task Manager and running a PowerShell command to re-register Cortana. However, these attempts did not resolve the issue. Further suggestions involved using Command Prompt to run system checks and repairs, including `chkdsk`, `dism`, and `sfc`. Ultimately, the user found that after some configuration changes, the search functionality began to work again without needing to follow the suggested commands.
