Useless "Search" in Windows 11
When I do a search on "Directory" for a "Keyword", Windows gives me all the file which contain the "Keyword" in that "Directory".
But I can not do anything on the files.
"Move", "Copy", a.o. are not possible.
Why?

The Windows 11 search is primarily an index-based preview tool, not a file manager. To perform actions like move or copy, you need to open the file's location from the search result and then act on it in File Explorer.
