Recurrent problem with SEARCH--terminates with a C++ Runtime error

Yes, but is Windows Search 4.0 intalled? If it is, try uninstalling it then
try your search again...
 
That tells you almost nothing about what really goes on... You cannot
believe everything the owners tell you. It takes some investigative work to
find the truth.

I am just running the built-in Search that I access from the Start menu...

Is Windows Search 4.0 installed?
 
You are right, continuing to converse with you has that affect.

Never attempt to argue with a fool or idiot they will only bring you down to
their level then proceed to beat you with experience...

I am learning...

When I run Windows Search, it will almost always terminate with a
Runtime Error! Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

Program: C:\Windows\Explorer.EXE

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an
unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more
information.

When I close that box, my desktop goes away (icons, task bar),
although I can continue with whatever windows are open until I am
finished, then I need to reboot.

Does anyone know what may be causing this error?

Have no idea what's causing the error, but I can fix your problem.

Abandon MS Search and use Agent Ransack. It's free, fast, and flexible.
 
Good! Have no idea why you're so dense and cannot understand the notes on
the sides of the buttons.
Are you just playing stupid?

Checked my programs and Windows Search 4.0 is not installed (Add-Remove
Programs list)

While I would like to figure out what the problem is with Search, I will
check out Agent Ransack. Thanks
