    So, Microsoft is working on a Tool called PowerToys to bring something similar to Spotlight from macOS to Windows: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/

    PowerToys contains various tools which can be accessed quickly via the Keyboard hotkey ALT+Space just like in Spotlight. The most interesting is PowerToys Run which can be used to launch programs.

    It's still in development but can be downloaded a preview if you click on "Releases" on the upper right section.

    Nice addition to Windows.
