  1. Esc function


    During the last three days on several occasions when I have my screen expanded and I have a video running I will try to go back to a regular size screen however the only way for me to accomplish this task is for me to put it on pause and then the function will work.Kenneth

    My search is not functioning

    1. Use the shortcut Ctrl-Shift-Esc to open the Task Manager.
    2. If you see only a handful programs listed by it click on the "more details" link.
    3. Locate "Cortana" under background processes.
    4. Right-click on the process and select "end task" from the context menu.
    The Cortana process is reloaded right away by the operating system.

    i strongly suggest u to follow step by step fix with pictures on Fix Windows 10 Search Not Working Easily (2023 Guide)
