Microsoft said the fix for the Windows Desktop Search bug will be available in mid-September. 

Apart from the Search bug, Windows 10 users are facing a host of issues after the recent updates. Last month, several Windows 10 users reported facing difficulties with Bluetooth connectivity. For some users, Bluetooth connected devices delivered noisy and bad quality sound.

"Additionally, in Device Manager, you notice an entry under the Sound, video and game controllers node for Microsoft Bluetooth A2dp Source that shows a yellow bang (exclamation mark) icon," Microsoft acknowledged on its support page.
