Thanks for the tip. I'd really like to have it in the taskbar and, also, when I click on that search box, it just opens the larger window. In other words, you can't actually type into that search box AFAIK.

I think I'd rather have the search box back on the taskbar too, I never realized how much I used it until they took it away

That is probably slated for a future release, as the taskbar is a completely different animal in 11 than it was in 10.
