not on Microsoft Search service

After troubleshooting in safe mode, I got the big red x on the message above. How do I turn it on? I rebooted in safe mode because the prior start-up wouldn't do anything.

Hello luannl,

What version of Windows are you using currently?  When you turn on your computer, what is you get the exact error message?  How long do get you this error at the start?   I have included a link below with a similar problem reported.

Windows could not start the Windows Search service on Local computer  Windows 7

Please let us know status

Thank you

    We are all ONE!

    I tried some of the solutions that offered you, but I think what was my problem was caused by the presence of the index on an external hard drive and when the computer has been restarted the drive letter of the USB drive was not the same.  If I remember well, it was a problem that I wasn't yet able to rebuild the index.

    I now have the index on my hard C at the level of the root drive.  I was about to point to the other half of a 16 GB flash drive which is also USB, but Windows Vista Home Premium does not only because it appears that are considered removable flash drives, but external USB drives are not presented in this category.

    Currently I have about 74 000 items indexed.

  • Windows Search service does not (Windows 7)

    I am running Windows 7 64 bit.
    Whenever I try to search that I am asked to turn on indexing, and I do.
    Because it is a recurring event, I studied further in indexing options.
    Indexing options said "indexing does not work" and and only allows me to enter the advanced options.
    Automatic troubleshooting futher gives me error measage "Windows Search service does not..." "Not fixed".
    I checked the services and tried to force start this service and get "error 3: the system cannot find the path specified."

    Can someone help me with this service?

    Security of Windows 7 is a PIA and what my problem was. "Indexing does not' and my inability to start theWindows Search service has persisted despite all these tips above and much more.

    When I went to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Search\Data and took possession of it (http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/), I was able to restart the Windows Searchservice. Subsequently, indexing ran and worked.

    We need the value of the securities of the ProgramData (C:\ProgramData) directory in order to stop this _ to interfere with the installation of programs and, often, the execution of programs and services. Right-click on C:\ProgramData and select Security, then the set of permissions to allow all permissions (http://www.blogsdna.com/2159/how-to-take-ownership-grant-permissions-to-access-files-folder-in-windows-7.htm) and the problem disappeared. (Note C:\ must be path of your window or use your default root.)

    Thank you Microsoft Support for your irrational, frustrating security measures and the fact that your support team has no idea. You have not been able to write a user friendly OS from XP and probably since MSDOS. Too bad I hate Apple more than you.

    6 hours of BS to understand this.

    I hope it works for you.

I also get the same error when you try a "net start wsearch" from an elevated command prompt.
