Hello,

I have installed the latest update of windows 10 (home and pro).

Windows 10 Pro - 1909 (v. 18363.476)

Now the "search" tab is no longer in the folders and I can't clear the search history either. Where is this tab?!

    I find this only works if you click in Search Box and search for any text... only then does the Search Tap appear 

    Correct  as the original and many posts state. Microsoft changed the behavior (intentionally or otherwise) and has not seen fit to change it back.
