Solved Windows Search Bar can not find Windows Updates

Ageeb · Feb 4, 2024

Hi everyone,

I've run into this problem more and more lately, seemingly related to windows updates, but historically when I have typed "updates" or "windows updates" into the search box, it would point to windows updates and I could go from there. Today, as with some various other XXHX updates, it won't point to it.

Anyone else experiencing this?
Is there a way to point updates in the search box back to windows updates?

Thanks for your time!
Adam
