How do I pin the "search" window to my taskbar?

I can't seem to pin the "search" window (found in the menu when right clicking on the start button) to my taskbar. Any help will be appreciated. I've tried everything I can think of including "virtual agent".

Thanks.

Hi Jeanne,

Assuming you are running Windows 10, please follow the following steps below.

Locating the search box in Windows 10


If your search bar isn't displaying correctly or is hidden, press and hold (or right-click) the taskbar and select Cortana. Select Show search box

If you don't have Cortana on your device, press and hold (or right-click) the taskbar and select Search. Select Show search box

If the above doesn't work, try opening taskbar settings. Select Start  > Settings  > Personalization > Taskbar. If you have the Use small taskbar buttons toggle set to On, you will need to turn this Off to see the search box. Also, make sure the Taskbar location on screen is set to Bottom

If you have further questions, feel free to reply to this thread.

Kind regards,
Leon
