Install EVERYTHING (awesome windows search software).
Pin it to taskbar.
Rearrange the pinned icon so it's the first.
Now, Windows+1 shortcut key will open Everything.

How do people search inside files on Windows?
I use ripgrep on the CLI, as Windows Explorer's in-built search has a cumbersome syntax.
Sometimes though, a GUI is easier.
I have tried GrepWin many times and I can NEVER get it to give the results I want - or expect- when I use it.
Something about the UI and me, they don't click.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"DisabledHotkeys"="S" ; Write out EI to disable the shortcut Win+E and Win+I.
