Several OS users have found their way to Reddit and Microsoft's forums to share their problem: the in-system search engine may crash on some occasions, and display an error message "It takes too long to load. ".

The prime suspect was quickly identified, it would be update KB4550945 for Windows 10. The bug would persist even after a complete restart of the computer. Fortunately there is a method to correct the error, while waiting for an update from Microsoft.

To recover Windows 10 search engine, the solution is quite simple:
- right click on the Windows icon

We hope that Microsoft will correct the problem very quickly. However, it is not possible to know at this time how many computers are affected by this issue after installing the update.
