I made up the result words because I couldn't remember them but they all started with part!
-
last time I used windows search was on Windows 7, else I just pin to start because I give up getting the result I want
-
linux is so simple in this regard.
lsblk
fdisk /dev/sdx
profit!
I hate having to navigate through windows. -
D--M22687yYou typed in a common word and expected what you wanted magically? Okay, definitely a windows problem.
-
Ederbit7387yI have to say if you don't know how to partition in windows you should not operate a windows server. I mean windows is crap and all but you can't expect it to work if you don't know to use it.
-
Not going to lie I do this all the time and still blame Windows because I’m too lazy to type the full word.

I am using some software that I downloaded off a random site... I think it is called "disk partition mini wizard" it is the best windows partition software I have ever used.. it let's me format a disk to file systems that windows doesn't even recognize.
-
Partitioning/formatting/etc on Windows sucks. I know how to do it, I know how the programs/commands are named - but most of the time I boot up a linux live system for that.
-
@dontbeevil I needed 2 ext4 partitions and 1 exfat partition on an SD card..
Windows can't do any of that. -
@D--M yeah it is. I want to see programs listed first, not Bing search results
Also I’d love if I could search for the english name, even when on another language. Like you can on mac -
@dontbeevil With the *exact* name? Because the whole point of the search is, that you can use key words/parts of the name.
-
@dontbeevil Must have been another version then, the Interface was very windows 10ish :)
-
@dontbeevil Let me retract the windows 10 part as I'm not sure about that anymore.
Rephrasing to: windows. -
McSebi5017yFor simply opening applications installed on my machine the windows search is actually great.
But for everything else - even music files in my music library - it's the worst shit that exists. Can't find a single file on my computer and then on the other hand if I type some random other stuff I'm trying to find, it shows me a few rainbow table .txts I stored somewhere I don't even remember deep inside the file tree...

An engineer was working on a windows server. Needed to partition something so typed 'part' in the windows search thingy (windows 10).
Few results found:

Part time working
Partial (something)
Engineer: Jesus fucking Christ I just want the FUCKING partitioner, windows what the actual fuck.
