About this tag
The disappearing results tag on WindowsForum.com covers issues where search results vanish after a system restart or shutdown, particularly in Windows 8.1. Users report that manually running indexing temporarily fixes the problem, but the indexed data is lost when the PC is turned off. Discussions focus on troubleshooting search indexing behavior, ensuring indexing persists across reboots, and resolving incomplete or resetting indexes. Common themes include Windows Search functionality, indexing settings, and post-upgrade search failures.
Search is not properly working after upgrading to Windows 8.1. To get the search effectively working, I have to manually run the indexing option. The indexing takes for long time but this is not the issue. The issue is that the entire indexing results disappears when I turn my PC off!!
