After opening the start menu, I started typing the name of an app I installed (For example Firefox). There were no results. Both normally installed and store apps won't appear in the search results. Always have to use all apps menu. How can I fix this?

1Has it finished indexing the drives yet? Top of the Search says 'We are getting Search ready…' which appears to take forever... – Tetsujin Aug 03 '15 at 16:45

This has been bugging me since release and i've tried all sorts to try fix it with no success until now. I noticed on my other machines that are working 100% with search that they have the User folder included in the indexing. So I added that into my problematic PC and surprise surprise its now working, I get results on all the control panel items i didn't before and it doesn't say its getting search ready!
See here for my indexing locations.
Hopefully this works for others but it may just be specific to my PC.
