Folders open as Search Windows

I foolishly failed to backup my registry before adding a "tweak" that
promised to add a right-click "search" option. Instead, it turned all my
folders into search windows. When I click on a folder, the search window
opens. I cannot see any of the files in the folder.

And I can't figure out how to get the offending registry change
reversed. I downloaded the registry hack from http://www.jfitz.com.

Can someone help me to restore my registry?

Happened to me, too, although I couldn't say how. You'll find the cure
at Kelly's Korner, line 18: "search opens with double-clicking a
folder".
