F3 Search Broken

[edde]

I'm running Vista Ultimate SP1.

I just noticed about a week ago that my F3 key is not working in Vista.
When I try to use it to open up search I get the following error....

Search:
This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
action. Create an association in the Set Associations control panel.



If I try to use F3 while on the desktop I get...

Search:crumb=location:C%3A%5CUsers%5CMYNAME%5CDesktop
This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
action. Create an association in the Set Associations control panel.

Hi Edde,

Does pressing "Windows Key + F" open the Search window for you?

Thanks Shawn for replying. I get the same message as above when I do that...

"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
