I'm sure it is one of those things that reset the indexer, not the real fix.

I know it works this way. But I can't make install media. (This is work PC, and it doesn't have a DVDRW and we cannot use USB drives) :-/

No it doesn't. I already checked it. Windows 10 RTM setup doesn't give me the option to do a custom installation.

Because that guide is from last year so it refers to preview builds.

Microsoft probably removed the ability to mount a Windows 10 RTM ISO and run the setup from there to install it as dual boot....

Too tedious. I'll probably get someone burn a DVD then.

i downloaded Windows 10 in VHD format. Can it be used to install Windows? For example, copy everything on it to the physical partition, do a...

No. I suppose they removed it from RTM?

I tried it. Sadly, the installer doesn't give the option to choose the partition. It just uses the same partition where Windows 8.1 is installed.

I only get 3 options.

1. Save settings and user...

I have cleared a partition for Windows 10.
C:\ = primary = 100GB: has Windows 8.1 on it
D:\ = primary = to be used for Windows 10
E:\ = logical/secondary = data partition

There are other...

Hi guys,

I have the Windows 10 Pro ISO with a Windows 10 key. (from MSDN)

I want to install Windows 10 as dual boot with Windows 8.1. Both are x64.

Is it possible to install Windows 10 from...

No. They were in their default location.
C:¥Users

However it happened to me when I added new locations to the index. After fixing the issue, I've added them back but so far so good.

Yeah it's driving me insane!!!

I still use Search Everything for searching files.

The index seems to be common to every user. So switching user accounts shouldn't have made a difference. Whether or not that is a good design is a separate topic of discussion.

Wait a bit. Probably it will fix itself once the indexing is done.

I managed to fix it on my PC, however I am not sure for how long it will stay fixed.

1. Opened Indexing Options and reset the index locations identically to the clean installed state and rebuilt...

This is x64.

I have another installation in a virtual box and I also briefly showed this but a restart fixed it.

I also disabled and re-enable the Windows Search service. I should try to...

It's still buggy. I also encountered this once on the RTM build, and many times on preview builds. Reboot usually fixed it.

Hi guys,

I have been using Windows 10 build 10240 for a while and I have a big problem regarding search.

When I try to search for something from the search box in the Taskbar, I get this...
