#Windows10SearchBlank #Windows10Bug #SearchMissing
This is a major problem right now Windows 10 Search Shows Blank 05/02/2020 I have the FIX.
In search I would like to use Chrome browser instead of Edge please even though Chrome is default. As an insider I did say to them and they said they would fix it. But nothing happened, as they would never listen we left the insider
Thanks! This needs to get out there more right now.
I had that issue today and it fixed by itself hours and restarts later.
The problem occurred out of the blue, without a Windows update. What does this tell us? Any guesses how this could happen? Windows as a service?
You sir are amazing
I had a very similar issue. There was a box covering the bottom 5/6 space of the search box, so there was only a single row on top visible. I could overcome this by clicking into that small space but I had to do that every time so I just searched for a solution. And it worked even for me, in March 2021. Thank you a lot!
I have the same issue, the bug appears randomly
I had both issues where the entire box would be blocked or that small portion as you mentioned. I could overcome either by doing as you mentioned. it would appear randomly and go away randomly.
@@theinquisitor18 ye same, is it fixed by this tutorial? i havent done it yet
@@Aedxn, so far I haven't experienced it since following this tutorial, but it's only been a hot second so I'm not 100% sure if it's gone, yet.
@@Aedxn, nope, it's back but still worth a try.
I wish I'd seen this this afternoon, before I looked at your old video and 3 million others then reinstalled windows. Thanks anyway. Spot on as always.
Yeah totally different fix
Same !
You can also try right-clicking on Cortana in the Start Menu->More-App Settings->Reset...worked for me.
Thanks dude
I reade your comment and try....
It works for me 😊😊😊
Open File Explorer - open Task Manager - Right click on Explorer and End Task ... should work as well I think
thaxs...working
Worked for me! Thnx!
Thx you are my hero
Mah guy!!!!! :) SANK YOU. Peepol, follow this method.
My screen went black
*Microsoft watches the video*
Also Microsoft: *Write that down, write that down!*
Lol.....classic
Masterpiece...
I thought I was the only one having this issue :pp
edit : restarting "explorer.exe" fixed the issue for me
SeireiART lol same
I had it today, restarting explorer didn't work...restarting the search process and services, neither...restarted a couple times and working again...that was a weird bug.
Thank you It worked!
Thanks you
lol same, thank you
I have been trying to find a solution for this all day for many computers. Thanks for the fix, I just hope that Microsoft fix this with a patch imminently.
Its one bug after another with Windows 10
@@Britec09 After updating your browser to Chromium Edge, the whole page is changed!
I've tried a PowerShell script that rebuilds the search box. I've tried to restart explorer.exe. I've tried to troubleshoot the problem only to find out that I don't have permission even tho I have full access. I've tried to repair and scan in the cmd. Lastly, I tried to create a new profile/account on my computer, which worked, but all my personalization and files are gone. This, my good sir, is the only thing that has worked without me having to do anything extra! Thank you!
In the Win 10 registry, unlike previous version of windows, you can just paste the full path you want to navigate to above, hit enter, and it'll take you there. No need to navigate through the swamp.
PERFECT FIX! You really don't come across tips like this and actually work. Fixed my bug in the Windows Media Player at the same time. Thank you.
Win 10 pro, version 1903, installed on 1/12/2020. I have not had any of the bugs that you have been describing in your videos. Is it possible that it's a U.K. build problem, as I am in the U.S.? Not sure if this makes any sense, but I thought I'd throw it out there. P.s. love what you do for us.
Would make sense lol. Look after those closer to home n'all that
Same problem in my job today. Fixed with a powershell script from microsoft. Thank you Britec for the info!
nice.
share the script used on power shell
Pedrojese Nhacumbe does the exact same thing as this just as a script instead
In a recent installation of win 10 I had this problem. What I did is :
Task manager > Details > searchUI in the list and right click, then End task.
A new instance of searchUI it will be there in a sec runing ok.
Maybe the english translation of commands is not the correct, my system is in spanish.
Thanks man! You saved me having to wait for, who knows how long, before MS addresses the problem!
For what it's worth, the problem started for me on Feb 5 2020, immediately after the "FEATURE UPDATE TO WINDOWS 10, VERSION 1909".
Soooooo.... looks like disabling the search box is a feature!! Cool! But still, I can't help wondering how many techs it took program the removal of the feature - LOL
Widows 10 has many bugs I'm afraid. They never finished it off like windows 7. Windows 10 was good at first until they keep messing around with it. Thanks for the videos, always keen to learn
My friend told me to go and watch the solution on computer. Today i watch your video for my problem which i am facing & i tried to discuss with my son and he also could not able to find the solution. But you know what your video solve my problem. Thank you
Hey Brian, Long time subscriber here. Got this issue yesterday and after i did a update to windows last night the search window seems to be working again. In the registry editor on my system under the
word value 'ReplaceCortanaCheckRefreshed' i have one called 'SearchTaskbarMode' . Not sure if this is a fix by MS but it seems to work. Anyways just wanted to see if this is a fix by them or do i need to do the fix you mention in this video.
Keep up the great content mate.
Man, you dont know how frustrated i was. Thank you for the vid! it really helped me out and other people too.
Thanks Brian, I didn't even realise I had this problem until I saw your video and checked (I don't use the search box much). Where did this bug come from as I haven't had an update for some time?
Nice. Tried the restart the indexing service, then rebuilt the index option first before messing with the Registry. But if my easier fix does not work and solve this problem, I will definitely try your RegEdit method which was also stated very clearly and efficiently in your video with much thanks! Sadly and notably, this problem is now dogging Windows 11 too.
It works man thanks!! You got a new subscriber here
I did everything in the video. Finally I just shut down, turned power supply off and on, and turned back on the machine. It worked for me.
Another right on time video. My laptop has this issue.
You're welcome
THANK YOU!! This has been driving me crazy the last couple weeks!

Excellent! That was driving me absolutely crazy, Brian. Cheers.
Many thanks for the fix Brian 😀
Glad I could help
M your new subscriber mate!
Thank you Brian. The date above is incorrect. "windows 10 bug on 05-02-2020" should be 02/05/2020 I do believe. What actually caused this bug? Was it one of the Windows 10 updates?
Geo
Geo Johnson - no it’s correct this way , in the UK and the whole world apart from the USA who strangely get month and day the wrong way round.
@@AlpineTerrier Thanks, didn't think of that. Yes, here in the US it's always month/day/year
This started for me today, and now a recommended video. Thank you!
But why did it happen?
Microsoft Windows 10 Bug
@@Britec09 and i have sometimes blsckscreen and cursor in boot
The PowerShell command fixed my issue. Thanks for the vid.
thanks man i tried everything and nothing worked... then i did exactly as you showed and it worked! Great video fast to the point calm clear voice everything perfect! thanks alot
This works also if your windows settings is not working!
Thankyou mate! I am very happy now :)
You can restart explorer.exe instead of rebooting once you have done the registry fix. (Open CMD -> Enter 'taskkill /f /im explorer.exe' and you will notice the taskbar disappear, then do 'explorer.exe' to start it up again, issue should be fixed.)
thanks @britec09 you helped me fix the issue for me totally tried few other fixes but your was the one
thanks alot man
Thanks! Worked for me. I just restarted Cortana (task manager) instead of restarting the system.
just got this problem yesterday, thought it was happening only on mine but seems out it is happening on many PCs. thanks for the fix man😊😊😊👍👍👍
DUDE THANK YOU YOUR A LEGEND YOU DESERVE TO BE REWARDED FOR YOUR HELPFULNESS
Thank you Britec, sadly the public are the testers of Windows. I had the search box hidden and didn't even know. Without a Windows update, how does it happen? Hey everyone, Bing is finally disabled on all systems. =D I'm kidding, thanks for the fix.
Microsoft got rid of all there software testers, now they use us
@@Britec09 Yup, worked there for over 15 years. ;) They hire SDET level and may call them testers to keep the rates down. You must pass a white board interview. You will be writing/editing code regardless of title. Maybe they are testing out the EU version and goofed?
@@Britec09 Windows =10 wants to be SAAS but is it actually people as a service?
Hi Brian thank you so much I didn't know about this because I haven't turned on my computer for a while as I say keep up the good work like always.
Thanks, Brian thumbs up for you👍👍👍👍😊
For anyone wandering in the comments thinking whether this works or not, it does.
Thanks Bro!
Thanks Bri,fix works a treat.
Cheers mate :) It worked! That's probably the first time I had a problem like this and the first video I opened fixed it!
Great video Brian thank you i didnt notice my search box wasnt working tilli saw your video thanks to you its back and running.I was wondering if other things stop working after updates because now i cant get into the bios from windows like i used to after going into the recovery page and clicking on advanced options the option of going into the bios as gone any thoughts
thanks for the video i had this problem yesterday i went through many solutions yesterday and none of them worked except for your solution, thank you so much
Every single one of my newly windows 10 updated today has this problem. You are mystic meg
Great video! I assume that's after installing the optional cumulative update because I don't have that problem with search it's working great for me.
Happening here in Tennessee! Thanks, Brian! You're the best!
I did exactly the same thing but still it's not working. Why??
How to resolve it?
Thanks a lot. This really saved me from a lot of frustration.
I really can't control myself if I see an update button and I need to be careful with windows update.
The only thing that works is a restore point. Start>Control Panel>on view by, change category to large>recovery>open system restore>choose a date when pc was working ok
UGHH every win 10 machine is blank search!! Thanks for the FIX!!!!!
It works!! I am very happy for this thank you so much
This worked like a charm..........!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you very much. This should help in large organizations via domain group policy. It's so stressful when dozens or hundreds of PCs have a silly issue like this...
thanks - good timing with the upload :D occured this morning
Thanks so much man, such an annoying problem but worked perfectly the way you explained it !!!
I have an entry in that section that you do not seem to have?
SearchboxTaskbarMode with a value of 2
That is nothing to do with this fix.
@@Britec09 yes, just googled it
I actually just had this issue happen to me today. Thanks for the video!!
i thought there was something wrong with my pc but its windows fault (btw THX for the fix :D)
It worked thanks! But i have 1 question why do we need to type "BingSearchEnabled"? How did it work again by typing that?
Oh ma god ... thank you soo much dude I've been trying to fix this for soo long watching so many videos was driving me crazy ... I'm greatful
Thank you. It works flawlessly !!
You're welcome
Wonderful, thank you! I was just about to factory rest my pc, this video saved me.
Fixed it right away, thank you for this informative video.
Thanks Brian. You're the best. I've been meaning to ask- where in the UK are you based? I'm living in Harrogate. Cheers
North London, your in North Yorkshire?
@@Britec09 I was in London for a couple of days a few weekends ago. I'll let you know when we intend to return to London as I'd like to buy you a drink to say thanks for all you do.Regards
I face this problem and come to youtube and search the solution then i see someone is posted about this 19 hours ago 😅😅
Btw its working thankyou.
omg it worked. TYSM!! It was really a major problem for me but now its all fixed.
Nicely done video. Could you set the search engine to say Yahoo or another one besides bing if you didn't care to use use bing?
FOUND A QUICK FIX FOR ANYONE THAT IS FINDING THE CURRENT VIDEO DOESNT HELP. FOUND THIS OUT RIGHT NOW AND IT HELPED ME BIG TIME AFTER MONTHS! OPEN TASK MANAGER AND AFTER ITS OPENED RIGHT CLICK ON THE WINDOWS SEARCH BAR AN IT WILL SAY (LOCK SEARCH BAR) MAKE SURE THAT IS UNTICKED... THANK ME LATER ;-)
Thank you this has been bothering me for the past few days!!
25/11/2021, I tried this and it worked, thanks!
This video saved me from reinstalling windows thank you
IT WORKED! Thanks for the FIX :D
Thank you so much man..watch so many videos but your method was phenomenal and it really works. I have another issue on my laptop that is automatically inspected in browser when I open this! can you fix this problem?
Bam! Fixed the issue....seems like a minor fix. Glad I saw your video.
Thanks for the great video I followed your instructions nice and easy fix
Yes nice and easy.
It works 💗💗
Thanks for your help
This happened to me on my other Laptop today after an update. I rebooted my PC and it was working ok after that. This is nice to know so if it does it again I will have to do this on it. Thanks for sharing and have a nice day.
Very nicely done sir, but that search box occupies too much space on the taskbar. How can I make it appear only as a small icon with that magnifying glass on it? It should expand only when I click on it...
I solved the my problem instantly, thank you very much for this simple solution buddy...!!!
Thank you!
It Worked Random Person Scrolling Thorugh The Comments To See If It Worked.
Amazing this fixed my PC even now in July 2022 :)
I use chrome, I use Google search, I do not use Cortana. I have the exact problem you describe here. My file explorer search won't work either. I followed your instructions until you said type in Bing.
Thanks alot for the video. My PC had this and I couldn't find any solution. This worked.
I went back and followed the instructions all the way through. It would not allow me to create BingSearchEnabled because I already have one.
Well done!!! Worked for me!! Thanks @Britec09
Hey Brit tech guy...
Off topic...but, why doesn't the Control Panel have a search function?
It's annoying to have to visually scan all those little icons.
Suprised this worked, thanks for the help!
"Thanks A Lot Man" Worked Without Restart.
@Britec09 it worked for me... Really helpful...thanks for this video
its work, thank you so much, i watch ads until end
Thank you good man!
after 3h of searching for help, your video helped me!
THANK YOU
Thanks for your service. Worked well with my computer.
