How to use the enhanced Windows 10 Search in 1903?

Our devices have plenty of apps, files, folders, and other features. Mostly, we do not remember the exact location of what we want. And we are often too busy to explore our device and perform the search to find out the location of the file for which we are observing. The search bar comes handy at these times. With the search bar, you just have to enter what you are looking for and in no time the best results appear. More frequently, we wouldn’t know the exact name of the object that we are searching. So, just end up typing a few letters or a phrase that we recollect rather than entering the complete name. Although this is of great help, the issue with this kind of search is that it shows too many results. And most of these results wouldn’t be of much help. Depending on what you are searching (i.e. file, app, setting or web search) you can filter your results. Here’s how:

How to Implement the Enhanced Search in Windows 10

  • Go to the search bar and type the word/letter/phrase of the entity that you are searching.
  • Click on the icon with three dots the top right corner of the search bar.

You will see a few options given below:

  • If you click on Apps, all the apps with the result will display.
  • If you click onthe Settings option, the corresponding setting options pop up displays.

Here also the surroundings that match to the letter p are shown in the search results.

  • If you click on Files, the file names that start with contain the search keyword and that will be shown in the results that follow.

All files that have por starting with letter panywhere in the name are seen. The extensions are included in the search results. So, you can select the type of file and the png file to get a result that contains all the images.

Finally, click on the Web icon that will show the best results of the internet search. You can click on the result that you want and it takes you to the webpage in Microsoft Edge which uses the Bing search by default.
