When I first installed Windows 8, I could start an application by tapping the Windows key once to bring up the Start Screen, then type a substring of the application’s name. At some point since then, the substring part seems to have stopped working.
So now, if I type chrom, I get, No apps match your search, but when I type the final e, Google Chrome pops up. Similarly, IE used to bring up Internet Explorer, but now I have to type the whole word Internet before anything is found.
Did Microsoft really change the functionality to make it much less useful, or is there a setting somewhere that has somehow been altered to create this change in behavior?
変更された設定と同じくらいシンプルなのでしょうか、それとももっと何が起こっていますか?
