right click search is gone
Hi Group,
When a folder in windows explorer is right clicked, the "search" or "find" selection is not there. I can search for files by going to Start Button - Search - For Files Or Folders. The only thing that I could find that could cause this is Under Tweak UI, Desktop tab, "search results" being unchecked. It is checked. Any ideas on how I could get "search" back in the right click under windows explorer? (I'm using windows ME, and I'm not sure when the search disappeared from the right click) Many thanks, Matt Meerian http://www.geocities.com/matt6ft9/ |

Have you been playing with TweakUI??
#2 applies here Note - there are a few cautions with TweakUI:- 1) Do *not* change the first icon from "My Documents" on the Desktop tab 2) Do *not* uncheck: Search Results on the Desktop tab 3) Do *not* hide the Tweak UI icon on the Control Panel tab 4) Do *not* uncheck: Show Control Panel on Start Menu on the IE tab 5) Do *not* uncheck: Shell enhancements on the IE tab 6) To move "My Documents" folder, right-click on the Folder, and click Properties. After downloading, double-click to unzip it (it will normally unzip to C:\Windows\Temp), go to the TEMP folder, right-click on tweakui.inf, and click install. It will place an icon in the Control Panel.
