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 :)

    On one of my 22000.132 (didn't test all of those) I get same result as OP show in first screenshot.

    Only 'Reset this PC' was shown, not 'This PC' as shown in your screenshot.

    Note: I don't use 'This PC' via Start menu / search. This was just a test.

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