User cannot search in Windows Server 2019
Users who log in for the first time cannot search in Windows Start menu (new profile). On the second login the issue is no longer present. Steps to reproduce: Create new local admin user...
mind that search issues can happen if there are issues with DNS, expired certificates in the Microsoft system (outside your scope) that relies on the start search engine. We had that in the past for Windows Server and client.
If this would be the case the search does not work at all, including local content. I'd advise to open a support request with Microsoft Support if you can reproduce this issue on more than one WS 2019 and recent patchlevel (01-2024)
