    Hi, good day!

    A few questions to help determine the cause

    • Which version of Windows 10 are you using? (22H2, 21H2, etc.)

    Did this start after a Windows update or graphics driver update?

    Does the issue occur only in Search, or are labels missing in the Start menu as well?

    • If you create a new local user account, do the labels appear there?

    Let's first try restarting the Windows Search process

    Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC to open Task Manager.

    If Task Manager opens in the simplified view, click More details.

    Go to the Details tab.

    Find SearchUI.exe or SearchApp.exe in the list

    Right-click it and select End task.

    Confirm the prompt if prompted.

    Check if this fixes the issue.

    If not, kindly restart your computer

    I look forward to receiving your update and I'm willing to collaborate with you till we resolve the issue. Do keep me informed by clicking "Add comment" below.
