This PC not showing up in Windows Search

Hi,

(Kindly upvote this in case you don't have a solution: https://aka.ms/AAdgiaz)

In Windows 10, I always used to simply click the start button, type "This PC" and press Enter.

That used to quickly search for This PC and open it.

Recently I installed Windows 11 Beta, I tried doing the some thing, but on typing "This PC", the search result is not giving me "This PC".

The rest of the search works though, for instance, I search for recycle bin, that works:

Could anyone help here, is this the expected behavior or is it a bug?

Thanks in advance :)

    Hi Abhijeet_Jain,

    Put This PC in the start menu and then you can use This PC like in W10

    I know all that can be done!.

    It's just something which used to work, "I" found it helpful.

    So that's why I wanted to know.

    Why Search? Click on the Start windows and File Explorer is there.
