How do I get my search button from the task-bar back?

[Windows Central Question]

How do i get my search button from the task-bar back?

I accidently pressed "remove from task-bar" on the "search" button on the task-bar, and now i cannot find it anywhere. Is it still possible to get back? i'm running on a HP laptop, and when i search in the pathfinder, it takes 5-10 min to get results. The search button on the task-bar was instant, and i really miss that.

How do i get it back?

I think it was the search box, bottom left by the windows symbol? That is Cortana, right click the task bar, select "Cortana," then choose "show Cortana icon" or "show search box."

Hope this helps.
