hi, had same problem previous windows 10 version , tried new fresh windows install no avail. found solution after struggling year: 

  • go settings -> privacy
  • scroll down , open background apps
  • set "let apps run in background" on (i had disabled this)
  • you can safely set off apps listed below that

after few moments, cortana able find programs , applications again. if want sure, restart pc.

i have no idea of why working, hope can helps too.
