I recently puchased XP pro & cannot use the search for files tool.
When I click, nothing happens.
Any other alternative software to use or a fix would be appreciated.
thanks,Dave
 
Dave,

Please open up REGEDIT (under Start > Run). Look up this entry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoFind If "NoFind" has the value "01 00 00 00" change it to "00 00 00 00" and itwill probably solve your problem. You will need to restart ("log off & login" will probably suffice).--Jabez GanGive me a chance, Let me help you!http://www.blizhosting.com"Dave" <[email protected]> wrote in messagerecently puchased XP pro & cannot use the search for files tool.> When I click, nothing happens.> Any other alternative software to use or a fix would be appreciated.> thanks,Dave>
