Not too long ago, we wrote an article on how to maximize your taskbar space by getting rid of icons you don’t use – things like Task View, Cortana, People, etc. You can read that article here.<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n This morning someone wrote us to tell us her taskbar search box disappeared from her taskbar and asking how to put it back. If you use taskbar search as much as we do, then not having it on your taskbar can be perplexing. But of course, it’s easy to put your taskbar search box (or preferably the taskbar search icon) back on your taskbar should it mysteriously disappear.

You can still use the taskbar search even though it’s not showing on your taskbar.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n How? It’s easy. Use the Windows key + S shortcut.
