Windows 10 "search" and the recycle bin ?

[Frozenoem]

Choice delete recycle bin crap.

Or settings>search>Choose enhanced search (vs. classic search) and exclude folders like Recycle bin.

*Fair warning presently on iPhone and I may have missed a step. It's just easier when I have Windows in front of me.

**And make certain you have all patches and updates applied on your Win 10 puter, one of the patches temporarily broke "search".

Thank you easyed for your comment.

I would still like to suppress results from the dumpster but you bring up a good point... clean out the dumpster regularly and there will be nothing to suppress. So I did that today, emptied the recycle bin and Search was much easier to take (it was actually useful).

Thanks for the tip!

How can I prevent the Windows 10 "search" function from returning files from the Recycle Bin?

Is this possible? Yes, I have Googled this and I am hoping for the "simple" explanation, not the 5,000,000 results to overly-lengthy articles that aren't giving me what I need...the 4 EZ Steps.
