SharePoint 2013 Search in Windows 8.1 Start Menu

We have a SharePoint 2013 with some crawle sources. Access to search center is also configured. We also have the ability to search in Windows Explorer with the search connector (.osdx).

My Question is, can i also set the search source for the startmenu in Windows 8.1?

Hi,

As my searching, currently Windows search federation has only enabled with Windows Explorer. So it may not able to integrate the search function in start menu with SharePoint.

Furthermore, I suggest you create a new thread on Windows 8 support community, more experts will assist you.
