Trying to find out if some files on computer, not sure
where they would be saved. Went to Start>Search, and empty
IE window comes up with left side box with Search
Companion. Unfortunately, nothing comes up in this box. I
loked through knowlege base, and they all assume you have
access to certain menu items, but the IE window does not
have these items.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Dave
 
Click Start, Run and type "regsvr32 /i C:\windows\srchasst\srchui.dll"

If that does not help:
1. Log on to the computer by using an account with administrator permissions.
2. Click Start, click Run, type %systemroot%\inf, and then click OK.
3. Locate the Srchasst.inf file.
4. Right-click the Srchasst.inf file, and then click Install. This reinstalls the files that Search Companion uses.

NOTE: If you are prompted for the location of msgr3en.dll and your computer came with Windows XP preinstalled, it is likely to be at C:\Windows\i386. Type C:\Windows\i386 into the Copy Files From dialog and press OK.
