On Windows, you open search with Win + S. Opens Windows Search. It sits in the The Windows Key group and is one of the Windows shortcuts people look up most, so it is worth committing to memory — it works the same way across almost every app that follows standard Windows conventions.
Open the app or screen where you want to open search.
Press Win + S.
Opens Windows Search.
