Search results disappear

After performing a search in the taskbar or with Windows Key +S, the results window closes automatically after 2 seconds. Does anyone know why this happens?

Since all the parts involved are Windows parts, I suggest you run SFC as your first response.
SFC - ElevenForumTutorials

Welcome to ElevenForum.

It's really worth making time to browse through the ElevenForum Tutorial index - there's a shortcut to it at the top of every ElevenForum page [within the Tutorials dropdown list].
- At the foot of the ElevenForum Tutorial index is a shortcut to download it as a spreadsheet.
- I download a new copy each month.
- By downloading it as a spreadsheet I can benefit from Excel's excellent filtering capabilities when I search for topics of interest.
- ElevenForum tutorials are also listed at Tutorials and there's a shortcut to that at the top of every page.

You can search ElevenForum using the search box in the top-right corner of all ElevenForum webpages or using Advanced Search - ElevenForum
- You can also search ElevenForum threads in many general search engines, such as Google, by adding site:elevenforum.com after your search term. For example,
Taskbar setup site:elevenforum.com
- [This is what the search box in the top-right corner of ElevenForum webpages does automatically]

Thanks for your advice. The problem still persists. I found some folders that should be scanned but no longer exist and removed them from the list, without success. SFC is unremarkable. The index is currently being rebuilt, which has been going on for days. If I click on the results window quickly enough before it closes, the results are not clickable. The error does not occur when I search for run, cmd, or Device Manager, for example.

The device on which the problem occurs is a 13-year-old Medion Eraser gaming laptop (a slightly modified MSI device). I've had a new device for a few days now, so the problem is no longer so pressing. When the index is finally finished and the problem persists, I'll try the further steps from the link that @Spunk posted, thanks for that.
