Hi All,
When I type in the search box in the task bar, the results are only from the web and the store and not my files, folders or my settings on my pc.
This was working fine a few days ago.
The example below is when I typed "device manager"
Any ideas please?
Never use it myself but just tried it, same result as you. Even disabling Web search didn't help. Quite frankly it's garbage.
You could install "Classic Shell" and voila! http://www.classicshell.net/
I have just found out why the search wasn't working on my pc!
Last week I installed a new Samsung SSD and loaded the Samsung magician software.
It was this software that had turned off the indexing on my drive, so I've changed the settings.
I might even uninstall the Samsung Magician software.
Everything is working now (I hope).

By your screenshot, it looks like Cortana's not totally set up, you should have 4 icons in the menu:
right click on Start and choose Search, you may get some more options to complete the setup.
What a carry on ! Not that I'd ever use this search engine or Cortana I end up here.
