If you can’t type in the Window search bar, it is probably due to the Ctfmon.exe process, which gets eliminated from running in the background. Ctfmon.exe is responsible for taking input from the keyboard and other input devices used for speech recognition, handwriting recognition, etc. When the ctfmon.exe gets eliminated for any reason, you won’t be able to type in the Windows search bar.

It is a pretty basic task for an operating system to allow its users to search for a specific file or application. However, some users are experiencing trouble with Windows 10 start search (or Cortana search). This issue prevents users from typing into the search bar of the start search. Some users cannot interact with the search box, they can’t click on it or type in it or paste anything in it whereas some users can use CTRL + V command to paste in the search but they can’t actually type in the search bar. This is obviously not an issue with the keyboard since the issue appears only with the Windows 10 start search. As you can imagine, this can cause a lot of problems for users.
