Anyone having problems with Search

Windows Vista13
Folks;



Found a good one. I like vista for the most part, but this one small bug

drives me crazy.



I click into the seach window. I type V. I then get a windows explorer

is restarting everytime. I do other searches for other programs email

etc works great. but try looking for "virtual" hoses explorer everytime.

Is this a feature. Or is their a KB with the answer. I couldnt find any

other similiar problems on the MS KB .





Thanks,



Brian

Re:Anyone having problems with Search

Hi Brian,



I can't repro this problem the way you describe, and have had no trouble

using search (regardless of where I initiate it from). There is a known bug

where if you hold down the WinKey+e, it will start a cascading stream of

explorer windows that is difficult to stop. I haven't seen it written into a

KB yet, nor is there a fix for this bug yet.

Re:Anyone having problems with Search

Thank you Rick for verifying on your end. Its kind of weird. Happens to

both me and another fellow at work. We both have vista business and new

Dell dimension 9200? Tried reinstalling vista from backup image. I

really love the instant search other then this small problem. Anyone

else seen something like this?

you gotta be kidding?



yeah pathetic search and performance degradation by horrid search services

is indeed by design.



Vista was created with crap as the model, and crap it became.
