I am having a problem with searching for files of folders
in Windows XP. Normally when the Search window is opened,
on the left, there are options as to what to search for:
files, folders, computer, contents of files, locations to
search etc.
When I open the Search window, I see nothing on the left
side, and so I cannot search for anything.

What can I do to repair this problem?
 
There is no problem. Open Search and find the View menu. Now choose Explorer
Bar and select Search. Et voila!

Thanks Tom Swift for your reply. When I do that, the
portion of the window under where it says "Search
Companion" is completely blank. Normally this is where you
will see the place to enter what you are looking for, the
locations you want to search.

Any other ideas?
