[Solved] Windows 7 start menu search work does not correctly

Hello
I hope you guys can help me with the following:
As I removed (through the registry) libraries in Windows 7 (see notice at the bottom) I can't find common things such as 'cmd' 'Notepad' or 'calc (tab'ulator)' find the programs installed in the search from the start menu, but CAN FIND paths like C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe. Research in the Solution Explorer window is not affected by this problem. If I try to search for example "cmd" in the search for the start menu it says "no element not corresponding to your research." When I click on "See more results" it shows This popup (click here). So I restored the registry keys, but it will not work correctly again.

FYI: I tried several things to solve this problem but never fixed it:
-see if the Windows Search service and Indexing Service are running (> Yes, auto-start)
-rebuild the index (it indexes 2 additional partitions on my hard drive, C:\Windows, C:\Users, C:\Program Files (x 86)------and standard folders like the Start Menu)
-Uninstall and reinstall Windows Search and Indexing Service (via Windows turn on or off features in the control panel > programs and features)
-delete the folder C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Search
-Tools Microsoft FixIt
-Troubleshooting (also the problems search and indexing)
-create new user account

I forgot something? If so, I'll tell you as soon as I remember.

Can anyone help me please with my w/out problem suggesting to reinstall Windows?

I use Windows 7 x 64 HomePremium SP1 on a
AMD Athlon 64 X 2 Dual Core Processor 4200 + 2.42 GHz with
4.00 GB of RAM and 500 GB HARD drive (partitioned into 3 disks).

Notice:
In order to delete the libraries I removed/edited these registry keys:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\ {031E4825-7B94-4dc3-B131-E946B44C8DD5}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\ {031E4825-7B94-4dc3-B131-E946B44C8DD5}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\ {031E4825-7B94-4dc3-B131-E946B44C8DD5}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\ {2112AB0A-C86A-4ffe-A368-0DE96E47012E}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\ {491E922F-5643-4af4-A7EB-4E7A138D8174}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\ {7b0db17d-9cd2-4a93-9733-46cc89022e7c}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\ {A302545D-DEFF-464b-ABE8-61C8648D939B}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\ {A990AE9F-A03B-4e80-94BC-9912D7504104}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]
"{031E4825-7B94-4dc3-B131-E946B44C8DD5}" = -.

I found a solution by myself.
If you have the same problem I had (really the same with above registry keys), just download this file: https://www.mediafire.com/?s4bt0447gk426r6 inside you will find 3 .reg files:
-to restore the registry keys and resolving the problem of search in the menu start
-through libraries in the start menu folders 'normal '.
-to cancel the passage of libraries in normal files.

To have no problem trying to merge "undo_rem_libs.reg", first give yourself permissions (full control!) of the HKCR\CLSID\ {031E4825-7B94-4dc3-B131-E946B44C8DD5} key by right-clicking on it > permissions... > advance > owner (tab) > click on your username > OK > again once, click your user name (this time in the 'group or user names') > check 'Allow' in the full control row > OK.
That's all! Now you can merge the .reg for restoring above file (see problem) removed key strings with the just installed new Windows 7 original data.

The other .reg files in the archive must be explicit.

/ Edit:
NOTICE: this works on all versions 32 and 64 bit of Windows 7 (not tested on Windows 7 Starter).

    The start menu and taskbar does not appear.  IM on windows 7.  Any help please?

    You can try to leave Explorer yourself.  Here's how:

    1. Press Ctrl-Shift-escape, which should open the Task Manager.
    2. On the file menu, choose new task.  Type explorer.exe and press ENTER.  The taskbar and the desktop should appear.

    However, this is not a permanent solution.  My best advice to you would be to use the system restore to go back to one hour before the beginning of the question.  This restoration process takes about 2 minutes and will not lose one of your folders: it restores only the settings from the system to a point in time that you choose (you can 'come back' as little as a few hours or several weeks).

    To do a test, follow the steps below.  I guess that you are unable to reach the taskbar for the following steps:

    1. Press Ctrl-Shift-escape, which should open the Task Manager.
    2. On the file menu, choose new task.  Type rstrui.exe (this name is for 'restore user interface').  When you click OK, the system restore should start.
    3. Through the system restore program, you will choose a time to come back. When you have completed the program, your computer will restart with the settings at this time.

  • Windows 7 start menu search can't find any files.

    Hello


    Start menu search does produce all files. The only results it shows are programs and Control Panel options. Essential, the search does not find the word, text, excel or pdf. I tried all of the obvious solutions that includes, by adjusting the indexing options. Enabling/disabling Windows Search on and off through programs and features. I have rebuilt the index a multiple of times. Define Windows Search in auto-start Services. I checked and rechecked the extensions of files included in the research and their individual parameters. I confirmed that the system has administration rights to all indexed files.
    These files are my documents transferred from Windows XP Professional 32-bit with Windows Easy Transfer to my newly purchased Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. The laptop has been approved for upgrade of Windows Upgrade Advisor.
    New suggestion would be appreciated...

    Thanks in advance,
    Wes

    I thought about it. There is a search parameter slot under the Start Menu Properties. I can't believe that that has not been suggested as a possible cause on any of the fine Web of MS. well sites.

    Right click the Start Menu button.
    Select Properties
    Relative to the opening tab of the Start Menu, click "Customize...". »
    Scroll to the bottom and with the parameter 'Search the other files and libraries' select search with public folders or search without public folders.
    I hope this helps someone.
  • Ctrl key doesn't work does not correctly

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion 17-e031sa laptop bought only 2 weeks ago running Windows 8.  The CTRL key does not work as it should.  In general, I would like to use it with the left button of the mouse to select non-consecutive items for the copy, but this won't work for this function.  It doesn't seem to be the key itself, because it does not work in the combination of keys ctrl/alt/delete.  I tried to uninstall the keyboard driver and restart, but without success.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi riggy69,

    Sorry for the confusion, I knew that these keys would not do the function you're looking for. I wanted to know if these shortcuts worked using the CTRL key. So we can see if it works this particular function or all keys ctrl shortcuts work. Quick access keys did what they were supposed to do? For example, the Ctrl + X cut the selected text, or Ctrl-Esc opens the start menu?

    Trying to see if there something wrong with the key itself or is someone wrong with this particular feature you try.

    Thank you

  • Why is one of my 4 5893 Modules doesn't work does not correctly?

    Hello

    This is the configuration of my HW and SW:

    LabView 2013 SP1

    1 x cRIO 9076

    4 x NI 9853 CAN Modules

    CAN0 - 1000 Kbps, entry timeout = 0, OutputTimeOut = 10000, Module clock: 20 MHz

    CAN1 - 500 Kbps, entry timeout = 0, OutputTimeOut = 10000, Module clock: 20 MHz

    I worked on a program for a test system, where each Module 9853 control two devices (CAN0 and CAN1), the same type of systems is controlled by other 9853 3 Modules in parallel.

    So basically, I use exactly the same functions for each module. So far, everything has worked correctly on module 1, but now that I started to test all other modules I have the problem that Module 3/CAN0 does not correctly read the information.

    While watching the FPGA façade, I see that each 10000ms one value is read, but only on that ONE module (frames are sent every 1ms from my unit)

    I tested the HW itself using the included examples and it works correctly, the only difference is that the example used only 2 Modules, one to send data and the other to receive it.

    I included my FPGA program as an image, I really don't think there is a problem with my RT SW, because all the other modules are working properly. Basically, my SW FPGA bed CAN Modules and puts the information in a FIFO, if there is an error (no information), it will make a loop once more and check again.

    Thanks for your help

    I solved the problem, it was an error of configuration on my side.

    The entry for Module3 CAN1 time-out was set up NOT as 0ms and 10000ms as I thought! , so that was my reading for DUT3 loop run only every 10000ms.

  • WIFI doesn't work does not correctly after driver update

    I have a DESIRE 4 laptop 1023tu with operating system Windows 8 PRO. My WIFI works does not properly after the update drievr.

    Problems...

    1. When you try to connect to a wifi hotspot the quick adapter turns off and allows the card instantly

    2. after connected, sometimes no internet access and the problem turns off only after reconnecting to the netwrok after setting off.

    If the update doesn't work not for you then do as I explained in my previous post and roll back to the previous driver. This philosophy can be applied to all updates.

    If there is no pressure or emerging reason to update to your PC or laptop works just great... do not update. (this is especially true when it comes to an update of the BIOS)

    For your question #2, the problem could be your wireless (modem, router or access point) which causes the connection dropped.

    Best regards

  • BlackBerry smartphones HELP! Ball control and keys doesn't work does not correctly!

    I have the curve 8330 and when I put in my unlock code and press the trackball, it acts as if im entering additional keys. When I finally get into the phone and try to press on the trackball, in its action, as if I am pressing the asterisk key. It does not correctly read the keys and is to register them as another key! Help pleaaase!

    This looks like what I've seen several times on a device with moisture damage.

    Even sitting on a countertop bath during a hot steamy shower or bath can cause problems with keyboard and trackball up to this JUST-withered.

    Really, it is more common than you think.

    1 the battery immediately! Do not turn on your BlackBerry device.

    2. allow the device to dry in a warm, dry place for 3 to 5 days * (see below)

    3. DO NOT "check it every day" by placing the battery in. Leave what would to dry completely. It takes time. Replacing the battery to check it can damage only (humidity + power = disaster).

    3. If the unit is hot after the drying period, let it cool to room temperature before placing the battery in the.

    * Suggestions on your BlackBerry in a warm dry place (open, with battery):

    • Place the BB in a container of dry uncooked rice, and then you can also place it in one of the locations mentioned below.
    • On top of all heat dry emitting electronic components: TV or CRT, LCD, TV cable box / Satellite or plasma monitor
    • On the dashboard of your car on a day sunny
  • The Windows 7 Start Menu search / indexing nothing works! Tried everything!

    OK Ive spent countless hours of research on this question, ive tried many "bugs" that did not work at all. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit Edition and here is my problem:

    The search for the Start Menu in windows 7 does not show ANYTHING when I type something to search for. No category, no file, no folder, nothing. The only thing that appears is "See more results" at the bottom and everything else is empty. When I click on "See more results" I get an error saying that windows cannot find the search query

    WHAT IVE TRIED:

    Ive tried to rebuild the index - always says 0 indexed items and NEVER changes, Ive tried to manually change the location of the index, same result

    Ive tried deleted manually the former location of the index, stop the search function, from the search function (both in the options and in regedit), restart the computer and still nothing.

    Ive tried Backing removed all find Regkeys, stop manually search in the command prompt, location of the Delete index into the command prompt, restart the search function in the command prompt.

    Ive tried to do an in Place Upgrade / repair installation of Windows 7 but he's always said his failure and returned to my current installation of WIN7

    Ive double checked to ensure that all my regkeys have the correct values and I have all the correct regkeys

    After all that, nothing WORKS STILL! -Yes research is Active, yes the file indexing and drive is chosen correctly, and yes the Search Options for files and folders ARE set up.

    Ive seen 3 other emails of Micrsoft argue that users have posted, some people say it arranges, it does NOTHING for me. I always have this problem.

    Please, please help me with this, if anyone can help me, you have no idea how much I appreciate it!

    I don't know what caused it, but this problem fixed the original problem and you describe for me:

  • On the start menu control panel does not work

    When I click on the start menu control Panel icon, it says and I quote": {26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683}"the RPC server is unavailable." All other icons are thus working computer, network, printers, etc all its only the control panel is not working. Two questions how to fix this and what is the RPC server?

    Hi I.Saenz,

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2 when was the last time it was working fine?

    3. do you have security software installed on the computer?

    Remote procedure call (RPC) is a part of Windows programs, which is "an interprocess communication technique that allows the software client and server to communicate." CPP is designed to provide a common interface between applications, making it easy for programs to communicate with the servers.

    Check if the problem persists in safe mode.

    Start your computer in safe mode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

    Restart the computer to return to normal mode

    If the problem persists in safe mode then I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

  • HP Envy, Windows 8 slow, late and does work does not correctly

    Hello

    First off let me give a run down of my installation:

    -HP Envy Dv7, (about one and a half years)

    -Windows 8.1 (I upgraded windows form 8)

    -HDD 750 GB (Stock)

    -Everything else is stock based on the computer

    So, my trouble started about 3 months after what appeared to be a routine stop after a day use.  The next time I started my computer took a lot more time to start, I got an error that talked about my control center catalyst having an error and does not and that nothing would be open to all.  After the merger with different ideas on how to solve the problem, I dropped and it factory reset.  This fix has worked for the whole two days were once again, I got the same problems, I did another reset and when it does not work I gave up for a while.  About two weeks ago, I again have to reset it and then updated for windows 8.1through microsoft dreamspark.  This seemed to fix my kind of problem, the same questions (not counting control catalyst who never returned after the update) would be upward if I have it plugged anything in the USB drivers.  Now for some unknown reason which was not the case for my wireless mouse which worked just fine.  If at this point, I have a mouse plugged wireless and no problem whatsoever.  One day I shut down my computer with the mouse is always plugged (I never do usually) after I do all my troubles to come back but enlarged.  I tried to do just a refresh of windows but it says that my hard drive is locked and let be honest I really want to keep refreshing and resetting my laptop and lost al my stuff.

    So now, here's a list of my exact problems in most occuences recentof, now:

    -Slow start and typing in my password take like five minutes to register that I typed in fact anything

    -l' unlock screen is for like five minutes

    -My Office take a good ten mintues to load all my icons and others

    -J' have a popup that says IEWebsitelogon, not having that take a long time to close

    -EACH window is delay, that is difficult to change their size, move about minimize, close, etc...

    -Every thing take > then five minutes for open including Manager, start menu task

    -Much more delay and related issues

    What is one thing to hard drive? They are not too expensive to replace, so I can get another copy of the win8 form my school so if that is the question that is very well.

    I really need help, my computer is basically usless, I am a student I need my computer please help me.

    Hello

    As you probably know, the error code 24 characters for short drive Self Test (DST) would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced.  It is also entirely consistent with the problems of performance, as you describe in your initial post.

    If there is no help, the player at the link below is an example of one that would be perfect for your laptop.
