SEARCH settings???

Had to reformat and install win xp home, sp2.

Before I reformatted, when I brought up the SEARCH window, it would
open at FILES & FOLDERS...

Now, when I press ''WINFLAG'' key and ''F'' for search,

''WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SEARCH FOR'' comes up.... then
I have to click on ''FILES AND FOLDERS'' to do a search.

How can I set this to open to straight to ''FILES AND FOLDERS'' window?

Also want to have "LOOK IN"...LOCAL HARDDRIVES C,D,E,F, to open
expanded, showing C,D,E, & F INDIVIDUALLY.

Thanks a lot.

Launch Search companion, and click the "Change Preferences" link. Click
"Change files and folders search behavior", and select "Advanced" and click
OK.
