Windows 10 search bar does not work: this is how you solve it


Windows 10

PC users have been having problems with the Windows 10 search bar for several hours. The search function no longer works and people are shown a gray screen. Here you will find the solution.

In Windows 10, the search bar and the start menu are displayed at the bottom left of the screen. The search function is used to quickly launch applications and programs or to open files. The cause of the bug is still unclear, but in the past we have seen that problems with Windows Search were due to Bing.

The problem is probably on the server side of Microsoft. It is expected that the problem will be solved by itself. Would you rather not wait for that? Then use this solution:

  • 1. Press the Windows button + R on your keyboard
  • 2. Type cmd and press Enter
  • 3. Enter the following 3 lines:

reg add HKCU Software Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Search / v BingSearchEnabled / t REG_DWORD / d 0 / f

reg add HKCU Software Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Search / v CortanaConsent / t REG_DWORD / d 0 / f

tskill searchui

Remember that you do not change anything in the Registry Editor, this can seriously damage your Windows 10 version.
