How to search for a specific option in Windows 10's Settings app
Microsoft did its best to organize the Settings app, but, since organization has never been its strong suit, a search feature was also added to the app. When opening Settings, a large "Find a setting" field is displayed at the top, in the middle of the window.
Start typing keywords for the setting you are looking for inside the "Find a setting" field. The Settings app starts suggesting matching settings. If the one you're looking for is among them, click or tap on it, and the app takes you straight to it.
If your search returns many suggestions, you can browse through all of them by pressing Enter on your keyboard or by clicking or tapping the "Show all results" option under the displayed results.
The Settings app lists all your search results. Click or tap on the setting you were looking for to access it, or use the search field in the upper right side of the window to launch a new search.
The "Find a setting" field is available inside every category of the Settings app to ensure you quickly find what you are looking for. To start a new search, enter your text in the field located in the upper left corner of your screen.
Windows 10 comes with a lot of search options. If you want to learn more about them, read How to search in Windows 10. Ten tips to become a Pro.
The Back and Home buttons in the Settings app
The Back and Home buttons make navigating Windows 10's Settings app a less confusing experience. The Back button is present everywhere inside Settings, helping you return to the previous screen. Whether you're using the Settings app in fullscreen or if you have it resized to its smallest possible size, the Back button is always displayed in the upper left corner.
If you get really lost, the Home button offers a quick way out. Clicking or tapping on the Home button in the upper left corner of the window returns you right where we started, to the Settings home screen.
