Windows search problems
Hi everyone,
I have been having problems with Windows search. When I search for a file (in file explorer or via the start menu), it doesn't find it even though I know it's there. I'm not sure when this started to happen (maybe an update is the cause?)
Things I have tried:
- Run DISM.exe (Scanhealth and Restorehealth), SFC and restart
- Disabling Windows search service, restart then enabling / starting it again
None of this worked Also, when I go to "Indexing options" it says "Waiting to receive indexing status" but nothing ever happens, it shows no indexed locations even after waiting for a long while.
Any ideas?
