Windows 10 Search Bar Problem

[spike47]

Hi
I don't seem to be able to type anything in the Windows 10 Search Bar, have tried cfmon.exe, it works but when I reload the pc it goes back to " Can't type in the search bar again"

1. What version of Windows is this?
2. When did this problem occur?
3. Is the condition of the Windows files checked? (sfc.exe /scannow)
4. What have you done recently on your computer, ie uninstalled, installed, tested, uppdated etc.?
5. Other important observations.

3:Yes
4:Nothing physicaly, windows is always updating so don't know if a update has caused the problem.
5: Nothing I can think of, not done anything to the PC.

Restart the Search process. It is a very straightforward solution.

1. Hold Ctrl+Alt+ Del, and select Task Manager.
2. Select detailed Tab in the Task Manager window
3. In the Name column, right-click SearchUI.exe and then select End task

The process will restart automatically after a few seconds.
