Slight modification to previous post, but same essential problem.
After uninstalling Windows Search 4.0, Windows won't start very smoothly.
After logging, it used to take about 5-10 seconds to dispaly the taskbar and
generally start working correctly. No it takes about 3 minutes - I log in,
watch the background load, then just twiddle my thumbs for 3 minutes, then
everything works fine.
Whats going on here? How can I remedy this? Did MS try uninstalling Windows
Search 4.0 before releasing it? I'm using Windows XP SP 3 (I note that I
cannot uninstall SP3).
Thanks,
Alain
PS: I am a professional software developer who just wants the old
easy-to-use simple search from before. Please do not bother asking questions
like "Why would you want to uninstall this?". Thank you.
