When I search in my taskbar for programs to open("Say for example VMWare workstationc44b14bf7ef770281cf2bf8b6dd1565b.mp4"). It wont show the program that I'm looking for, only files with similar names. To hopefully speeds things up a bit, I've tried this solution that I find: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-win_cortana/cortana-not-finding-desktop-apps-when-searching/f612e995-6664-4b91-b6ae-96790e763858. The device in question is a Dell XPS 13 9360. I made a video an attached it.

Hi All I'd like to ask if anyone knows of a way to find a repeated audio clip within a file. I have a file that has beeps in certain sections of the file and it is the only sound recorded (it was created that way), now i have found the 1st beep and I wanted to know if there is a way for me to search for a specific sound clip within any of the free audio editing software available. I am currently using audacity. Thank you for your help

So i wanted to do a little project again about a old game i used to play, i found it a good project since it had the ability to compare items set prices and where you can find them etc. So the thing i stumbled uppon was that every item can have values like Attack, Defense, Critical. But most of them also dont have these stats and have completely other stuff like Health regen. And there there are a few items in a totally different category that SOMETIMES also have Health regen (Like a special item) The thing is i deal with alot of Stats which can be applied but mostly it really depends on that item and not on a category like Gear or weapons Even a goddamn pet can have Attack bonnusses. To make a Table with the Items in it and a column for every stat that CAN be there would be a bit much? or do i have to deal with it. Its faster for making search possibilitys. Also means that some items just have 30 empty columns and like 5 filled. Or do i just store an array in the DB with the values in it, which makes it a bit more pain to search and compare things since you have to extract that array all the time. Its a bit of a broad question but what it comes to is. I have alot of data and the data is per item different, normally its per category most of the gear would have the same thats than other gear parts. Here its not that case.

windows A very frustrating issue with windows search
DigitalDoofus posted a topic in Troubleshooting
So this issue began a couple days ago when my windows search (windows key plus name of program) began to refuse to show results for some programs and work for others, this is evident in the screenshots below. As I am the kind of person who likes to keep my desktop clean this is causing me alot of issues, Some of the windows programs refuse to launch now. It's gotten to a point that i have to use windows key + R to run a majority of the programs. Some programs will run like Dirt Rally, Whilst some wont show up at all like Rakuen Both are steam games and both have shortcuts in the same place. This is very frustrating and any help is appreciated as this is causing me more trouble than it may seem. Screenshot guide 1. showing a shortcut refusing to show up at all 2. Shortcut showing up but refuses to run (no matter how many times I shout or spam enter) List of things I've tried Powershell Stuff 1. sfc /scannow 2. DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /Restore Health 3. Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} Task Manager stuff 1. Restarted Cortana Process 2. Restarted search progress File manager stuff 1. Attempted to name file C:\Username\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Windows\UserClass.dat to UserClassdat.old (its open in system tried this through a command line same result) 2. Uninstalled all antivirus software 3. Rebuilt the ENTIRE index (this took ages) Basic stuff 1. Restarted PC 2. Checked for updates 3. Sacrifice a goat to satan None of these have worked and I'm not up to the idea of resetting windows on my laptop for what is the 7th time now. -
Hey everyone, so recently, I can't search fo stuff on my Windows 10 laptop anymore. I ran a troubleshooter for search and indexing, and it told me: So... I can't find Security and Maintenance (because search is broken), so could someone help me? Maybe offer a solution other than "yah well look over there, maybe there's something" like Windows did? Thanks, John EDIT: So I restarted (which I had done before, obviously) and it "got Windows ready", and now it works. So... cool?

Hi there Quick question. In our company when we search for VPN the standard Windows 10 search comes up. We would like to implement the function that when we search for VPN a specific application is shown in addition to the standard windows 10 Search results. Does anybody know how to implement this in a SCCM environment? Can we somehow give MetaData to the application in question so that it is shown in the search results? Renaming the application shortcut is not really a option as the application name will revert back to the old one when a application update is applied. See the two attached images for an example of what I mean. In this case I renamed the shortcut in the Start Menu Thanks for any help. Ben

Hi everyone, My laptop running windows 10 was acting up showing BSODs and freezing, and I fixed it by first restoring it to an earlier restore point and by completely reinstalling Intel's HD Graphics drivers and the Nvidia drivers. Now, everything seems to work fine again except that I am not able to type in the Search bar or any of the default Windows 10 apps (Store, Groove, etc.). I've tried a number of CMD and powershell commands, reinstalling updates, Troubleshooting through control panel, attempts at a system restore, messing around with task manager forcing Search.exe to quit, but nothing worked. Does anyone have a suggestion to what to do here? Thanks in advance!

Hello, i am searching for a program (software) like "Everything" with the exact same speed and search function, but it has to search inside the files. An Example: I type in search "hard" the tool searches for files with the title "hard" but when it also finds text documents it searches inside them for the text "hard" The point is i want it not only to search for files with the title "hard" but also files like word documents or powerpoint documents that aren't containing the word "hard" as a file name, but they have the word "hard" inside them as a text. Example: Journey.yml (inside the document) It was a very hard Journey. I am basically seeking for a "Professional" search engine that runs not like a Java script or in CMD or anything like that. I am searching for a Software or Tool for Windows that will index FILE NAME AND there FILE CONTENT. This tool or programm would help me out a lot. If there would be a solution for my "problem" i would be glad to hear about it. (sorry for my bad english) regards, MaploX

Hello my fellow humans! I have encountered a problem with my Windows 10 Home search feature. It almost works. I can open it, I can search for things like 'controlpanel' and 'system information' an it works all fine and dandy but I can't search anything that I have installed myself, it just doesn't show up. I have tried doing the Index-properties thing and all that but it just doesn't seem to work. Anyone got any tips on how to fix this?

I know it's stupid anyway I'd like it to be useful stuff I'd actually want but it can be really dumb if you want too cuz this whole idea is dumb XD. Anyway, happy searching

Hello I need help! This randomly happened and i did not change anything. btw this is windows 7 i am using When I was looking through files and wanted to see it by date i would press "Arrange By Date". It shows nothing its shows as the folder is empty. Now when I choose arrange by folder it shows all the files and all the files are in there. This applies to documents music pictures and videos. And if i were to say get a new file or modify it and put it in the folder and arrange it by date the file only those files does show up. Also the searches doesnt show the full list of files i have anymore unless i click the actual file and open it up then it would show on the search list. yes i know if i choose sort by date it would work but i prefer not that method. I have tried the following: http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/arrange-by-not-working-windows-7-libraries but this does not help is there a way to fix this without doing a clean install? please help and thanks! yes i did a virus scan and nothing detected

So today I realized I can no longer hit the windows button and just start typing to quickly find something im looking for. I'm unbelievably annoyed. I tried looking up a fix and all I find is how to enable to Cortana TASKBAR search box. This is not what I'm aiming for. I want the search feature that is included in the windows menu. I would really appreciate any advice that will point me in the right direction. For example does the windows button menu have a specific name that I'm blanking on? I imagine this alone would improve my search results. Thanks guys Inadaizz

Hi, I´m in a laptop that had many many malwares, virus etc. Now that is clean, google address bar wont search like before. I must say that there weren´t any google search engine, I had to add it and I think I did something wrong becouse every time I try to search it just stand and I must wayt for two loading screens and then hit enter again. The thing is that the owner doesn´t want me to uninstall and reinstall google chrome. In the ss is what I wrote in the address bar and how it ends up, that is the point where I must hit enter to search again, it doesn´t cost me doing that but is annoying.

For well over a year now I've been stuck with a combination of a 20.5" 900p LG monitor (trash), 22.5" 1050p Samsung monitor (dying), and a 24" 1080p Acer monitor (decent), and have decided that I need more screen real estate, and also need some better quality monitors. I'm looking for the following in the monitor: - IPS (AH-IPS or PLS/IPS are fine) - 25" to 27" for 1440p, or 27" to 32" for 4K - 16:9 aspect ratio (I may consider a 21:9 3440x1440 32" monitor if it's good enough) - Black bezels - Good build quality - Thin bezels (It'll be in the middle of two other monitors, so I don't want giant bezels in the middle of them) - Under $400 USD (Absolute maximum price) - VESA mount support I'd prefer to keep the monitor on the cheaper side of things, though am willing to spend a little more (up to $400) if it's truly worth it. I'm currently considering the following monitors: ASUS PB258Q 1440p AH-IPS 25" display Dell UltraSharp U2515H IPS 25" display ASUS PB278Q PLS/IPS 27" display Suggestions are appreciated!

I keep having this problem, that I can't search for anything apart from Windows settings (like control panel, device manager etc). When I look for a file, it doesn't find anything. And only shows 'These results may be incomplete' with a spinning circle next to it. I checked the indexing option, re-indexed and all seems to be fine. Sometimes, it would really be convenient to have the search tool at hand..

Can we have a search this thread function? Let's say you're looking at this 900 pages long thread, and you want to find a specific content or all post by a specific member. Just type in what you want to search in the search box that's inside that thread, to give you the results you're looking for.
