3 TopicsTaskbar Search and Start Menu Search are greyed-out and can't be used
Hello, I'm facing two issues. Not sure if the second one is causing the first one: My Search bar at the bottom of the screen is greyed out (I cannot type there) and the same happens when I open the Start menu (with Ctrl-Esc). Typing doesn't allow me to search for apps/settings/documents but simply highlights menu icons that are already shown in the Start Menu (so pressing 'e' highlights the Edge icon, etc) My cumulative Windows Insider 11 Update (Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Insider Preview (10.0.26120.4250) (KB5060820)) is failing upon restart with the 'Something didn't go as planned' message. The error code for the update is: 0x80070005 I tried reindexing and resetting the Windows Search service for 1) and retried the update for 2). No luck What would you suggest as a next step in troubleshooting?190Views0likes2Comments[Feature Request] Start Menu & Search: Applications Tab Filtering Functionality & Window Sizes
Hi, First of all, the search bar at top of the start menu is a good idea imo, but now, its closes the start menu and opens the search tab. Start menu closes, new search window opens, they do not have the same size, there is always a closing and reopening effect going on. I think thats not a good user experience. I wanted to share some opinions: It would be better if the that transition happens without closing the start menu and reopening the search menu. Some quick resizing animation like expansion shrinking would make that transition better imo. Second one is the functionality of the search bar at top of the start menu. Currently it does not have a filtering or searching in quick start apps or on all applications context. It would be wonderful if the search bar filters the the applications in the all applications or quick start apps menu, rather than opening the search window from scratch. https://youtu.be/-FbiQqB1zls476Views0likes0Comments
