Open up a PDF in chrome. Then press control + F to open up your search box.
That’s a just-alright work-around. Adobe’s search engine is much slower, I don’t know why my employer buys that Adobe bloat-ware crap.
Win7 wasn’t biased toward Microsoft products like Win10 is, it would search all file contents. Win10 has the same folder setting but when you tell it to search file contents in the folder settings, it won’t do it. It’s weird, the setting is still there as a Win7 remnant but it’s hard-coded out. I’m finding a lot of settings in Win10 that are like that. You have choices, in theory, but the operating system does whatever the hell it wants to do after you set it. What your laptop does when the lid is closed or opened is another example. In the Power Settings, I set it to “do nothing” but when I open or close the lid, my computer freaks out, everything goes black for 10 seconds, scrambles my desktop icons, and display setting intermittently change (in other words, it changes settings and not the same ones every time).
My motto for Windows 10 is “Everything’s a problem.” In Win7, when I would hook up to a monitor, close the laptop lid, or hook up to Wi-Fi, Win7 would do it right every time and I wouldn’t have to worry about it. In Win10, I always have to search for some setting to correct back to what it was. Using Win10, things are always a problem. It sucks. Microsoft offered Win10 for free as an apology for the crap-fest that Win8 was. I never used Win8 but I harbor serious doubts that Win10 is any kind of improvement. A change to a newer Windows operating system is no longer an upgrade, it’s a downgrade.
One other thing I noticed about Win10: it always wants to open your webcam and microphone to the world. Microsoft also freely admits that they monitor you at random. So in addition to it having utterly crappy functionality and user interface, it’s also spyware.
