Windows XP Pro SP2 second edition
IE 7
Some time this past summer or fall one of the Windows Updates was Windows
Search Service. I probably didn't give enough time to get used to it, but it
was very annoying (the annoyance to me was the disorganized labels where we
put in our options for a search, for instance, the first label was "From:" I
still don't know what I'm supposed to put in that space. I finally opted
each time to let the old default search module find what I wanted. I have
always used the old search module a lot.
Anyway, I uninstalled Windows Search, because the description in Services
says if Windows Search is stopped or disabled, the search in Explorer will
fall back to item-by item slow search.
With Windows Search uninstalled, when I want to search on my computer, the
search column is in the style of the new Windows Search Service (the forms
blocks are there, but there is no text. And there is no option to click
into the item-by-item slow search, as the Services description says we will
be able to do.
In Services right now, Windows Search's startup type is Automatic. The
service status says Stopped. Indexing Service (original indexer) is set to
Manual, but does not say it is started.
(1) Is there a procedure I can do to get back the original search engine?
(like Starting the old Indexing Service)
(2) Or am I to just download and install Windows Search for XP SP2?
Event viewer is complaining it cannot find Windows Search (of course); There
are three items for each complaint: Information; Error; and Warning (local
computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL
files to display messages from a remote computer .
