Here’s what you should do:
Open Registry Editor. Go to the following Registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search
Create a new DWORD value named EnableSearchBox and set a Value data to 1. If you already have this value, then just modify its value data from 0 to 1. If you have some problems, check this screenshot:
Sign out and log in back to your Windows account. But if you don’t want to do that, you just can restart the Explorer shell. Now, you’ll be able to see a new Search box in the taskbar of Windows 10!
But your search icon is not last forever, because you can return it via the taskbar context menu. New options will appear in your taskbar menu: Check on Search – Show search icon item to restore the Search icon on the taskbar:
If you don’t want to mess with your registry, you can download already ready .reg file and just past it to your computer. Double click the Enable Search Box Windows 10.reg file to enable the search box or import the Disable Search Box Windows 10.reg to disable the new search options. Also, don’t forget to restart your system, or the Explorer shell at least. Click here to download Registry files. Read Also: How to install the .Net Framework in Windows 10
