"Type here to search" has stopped working
When I place the cursor in the "Type here to search" thing, a window
appear above it with some stuff about Cortana. But as soon as I type the first letter of what I want to search for that window goes blank except for a few icons on the lhs. It's useless anyway and I use Search Everything for finding files on my computer, but I'd still like to know why "Type here to search" has stopped working. |

I had supposed computers to be deterministic automata. |

Just switching off and switching on does not solve the problem(s). the machine has to be restarted. Now how this is done, you'll need to ask a supplementary question and it will cost you £10.00. /--- This email has been checked for viruses by Windows Defender software. //https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/comprehensive-security/ -- With over 600 million devices now running Windows 10, customer satisfaction is higher than any previous version of windows. |
