Windows Search is one of those features I want to like more than I actually do. It’s built into the operating system, it’s always one keypress away, and in theory it should be the fastest way to get anything done on your PC. In practice, it’s often slow, inconsistent, and weirdly unreliable. I’ve had it miss apps that are clearly installed, ignore files I just opened, and hang long enough that I end up clicking around manually instead. At some point, you stop trusting it.
