Windows 10 start menu search (cortana) works just fine.

I've rebuilt the search index, purged the start10 menu with the purge tool. Removed the installation, cleared everything stardock related with regedit, without a results. I also followed the samples/guides you can find in these forums relating to Start10 search.

I'm using v. 1.7 Start10 and Windows 10 Enterprise v. 1809. Yesterday Start10 search worked just fine. Nothing changed on my system (no winupdates, no software installations etc.). I'm using Start10 search only to launch programs and games.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

Did you change this to off?

Hi sdRohan

Yes, I tried now turning all those settings on, and then off (rebooted the comp meanwhile testing both settings). And still Start10 search doesn't give results.

Edit: I'm also using Admin account and I just gave full admin and user and system permission to "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu" folder. Start10 search stays the same giving no results.

Ok, I managed to fix the issue by reverting my system with windows restore to yesterday. I will return if the problem occurs again or if I can find the reason why it happened.
