Is it possible to make Everything just replace the start menu search engine? (on Windows 10 Pro)

[Negus2k]

I have Everything, and the EverythingToolbar works for me fine, but is it possible to just use it to search from the start menu, without too much work to setup?

I'm running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.
Thanks.

Hi @Negus2k,

you can search for start menu apps by creating a custom filter in Everything like this:

Afterwards, enable the option "Use Everything filters" in EverythingToolbar. That way you can quickly select the "Start Menu" filter from the dropdown or by pressing Tab/Shift+Tab.

You might also want to enable option "Remember filter" so you don't have to select this filter every time if that's what you are looking for.
