Which command is starting the windows search function?

[Guest]

I have the oppertunety to program som quick buttons on my keyboard. Does
anyone know how to find the exe file that starts the search function?

There is not an .exe file. You can create a script to launch the Search
Companion though.

- - -
Set WshShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
WshShell.FindFiles
Set WshShell = Nothing
- - -

Copy the above code to Notepad, and save as "srch.vbs". Optionally, you can
move the script to the Quick Launch area for easy access, or configure the
keyboard buttons accordingly to launch the script ("wscript.exe srch.vbs")

That's a function of Explorer.exe (Windows shell).
