That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.
Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does.
Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Same thing: reboot > Pictures folder still there. 
Even after rebooting, the Pictures folder remained.
Then I tried to remove the Pictures folder with option one at Add or Remove Folders from This PC in Windows 10 | Windows 10 Tutorials. I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily. Summary, that last suggestion didn't work. Whether by user or system error, sometimes these permissions can change in a way that effectively locks you out of using a given file or app.Quick Access not searching Pictures folder One of the parts of the file system is permissions, which dictates which users on the PC have access to the file and the level of access they have (read, read-write, etc.). There are many layers to this, ranging from metadata (length of music files, location photos were taken, data file was created, etc.) to the surface-level filenames. The file system, simply put, is Windows’s way of organizing how files and data on your PC are stored. What exactly is the file system, and what does this mean? One of the most frequent reasons the Photos – or other UWP – app may not work is the modified permissions in the file system. You can check your Windows 10 version by clicking Start, then typing “about” and selecting “About your PC.” Scroll down in the new window and see what’s next to “OS build.” If you see an “N” or “KN” next to your OS build, try downloading the Windows 10 Media Feature Pack to fix the Photos app.Īlso read: How to Fix Windows 10 Stuck in Airplane Mode Error Check Permissions in File System
