1. In the run box write the following: “msconfig”.
2. Press the “Enter” button on the keyboard or left click on the “OK” button.
3. Now the “System Configuration” window should pop up on the screen.
4. Left click or tap on the “Services” tab situated in the upper side of the window.
5. Now check the box next to the “Hide all Microsoft services” situated in the lower left side of this window.
6. After you checked the box from the step above left click or tap on the “Disable All” button situated in the lower right side of this window.
7. Left click or tap on the “General” tab situated in the upper side of the window.
8. Left click or tap on the “Selective Startup” feature.
9. Uncheck the box next to “Load Startup items”.
10. Close the “System Configuration” window.
11. Reboot your Windows 10 operating system.
12. When the system starts you will have to check if the Instant Search feature works in the metro apps from Windows 10.
13. If the feature is not working then proceed with the next method below.
14. If the Search feature works then you will have to disable each application at a time from the start-up menu by following the steps above but disabling them separately by unchecking the mark next to each one and see what app is causing your system to malfunction in such a way that your search feature stops responding. If you find the application then you will have to uninstall it or just update it to the latest version available for Windows 10 systems.
