Windows search doesn't open

After a couple of hours work> language set to english *uk(, but as you can see the qwerty has turned quite weird.
Then run Diskgenius searching for lost partitions... 12 which I quite don-t understand *actually it looks like a big disaster & mess to me* see screenshot number 17.
And finally, after many attempts, the diskpart- screenshot number 18 shows the right guess> both 0 and 1 are GPT.
Now please guide me through this 12 partitions, to optimize the disk 0.
FYI Disk 1 is ssd, and I would need suggestions about how to use it, for smoothing the system, operations or User Folders, for I still need to install office or similar and a pdf editor.
If you reckon that I have to format everything and reinstall clean, well, let-s say that I-m available.
Waiting for your help and kind support to delete my concerns.

lost partitions: I was just trying to figure out the app...
Anyway, as shown in the screenshot #19, I have right now a local disk (Z): I've no idea where it comes from and what it is. And BTW it's not showing in Disk management (see screenshot #20)

After restoring the system to a previous point , the machine got stuck and did many attempts to troubleshoot. None would work, apart restarting from the command prompt.
I had to download the w10 media creation tool on bootable usb from another PC, and reinstall from zero.
Later on I've found out that the disk 1 is asking for initialization but it wouldn't allow me to do it, neither as gpt or as mbr. 🥵
Drivers have been installed.
And obviously before installing the new w10 I had converted both disk 0 and disk 1 to gpt.
What next? Diskgenius or a scan sfc for bad sectors?
BTW disk 1 is ssd.
 
Hi, I m totally at loss, as it is my PC. Please, have a look at screenshot.
Pc starts in bios mode directly and drives me to the screenshot

Ok I've managed to install Windows after converting the disk 0 to gpt.
Disk manager keeps showing a certain disk 1 to be initialised. But it's impossible to do it, as its capacity is 0 Gb and the system says that the device is unexistent.

Plus I can't find my ssd partition as part of the hard drive.

I didn't understand this:

Click to expand...

Among the various details of the disk 1, we can read Current Read-only State : No and Read-only : No.
This command should resolve it (post the result):
Code: 
diskpart
select disk 1
attributes disk clear readonly
detail disk
 
YEs, it's not readonly anymore :-) .
Apart from this achievemnt, it's 0Gb, unknown, and impossible to initialize (msinfo32 in attachment).

Regarding my 24 Gb ssd on the HDD, I remember that it would appear in Disk management, and indeed the specs of my laptop confirm the above. (picture in attachment)

Launch these commands:
Code: 
diskpart
select disk 1
clean all
create partition primary id=ebd0a0a2-b9e5-4433-87c0-68b6b72699c7
detail disk
exit
Copy the text result and paste it here.
 
I went in diskpart , list disk, only disk 0 now: disk 1 keeps appearing and desappearing.
Listed disk management and there it is!
I cannot launch the commands above.

I also wonder whether the ssd partition might have migrated in disk 0, but can't find those 24 GB
