Search Service refuses to run
Ever since installing W11 64 in Novemeber my search function refuses to run. I have tried a half dozen fixes from DISM, to re-specifying Security settings to an re-install via ISO (keeping programs)....
My search settings still say my organization controls some settings even though I have tried to clean them off (no longer working)
Do you have any work or school account listed under Settings > Accounts > Access work or school?
If yes, removing it completely may resolve the issue.
Try removing it using detailed steps in this guide:

Additionally, I recommend to run Search & Indexing troubleshooter from Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters, and let us know what it reports back.
