• Windows 7 search feature does not work

  When I try to run a file search from the start (Windows 7) button, first the pop-up box disappears when I type in the first letter of the search and I am unable to perform a search. If I click on "see more results" I get the message "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You are not the most appropriate to access the element. »

  I haven't added any new program, only windows updates and use free Avast as the defense of my anti-virus, which is updated several times a day.

  Thanks for sharing your solution!

• Windows 7 search () still does not work.

  Although I followed other dialogues forum on the subject and tried all the suggested solutions, Windows 7 Search still does not for me. It will be as stuff in Control Panel etc, but never files and documents.

  Here's what I've done so far: -.

  1. Run the troubleshooter of Search & Indexing, say things that I can't find the files or by e-mail. It detects any problems.
  2. In Control Panel / programs and features, I checked that Windows Search is turned on. (The Indexing Service is turned off).
  3. In Control Panel / folder Options, I checked that the default values of the research are defined.
  4. I tried to rebuild the Index in Control Panel / Indexing Options.
  5. I looked for the wandering registry key mentioned here: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7files/thread/cc378149-8765-498a-9480-b1b494e1a1a9 my system does not have it.
  6. I checked that the files (for example, "My Documents") have set of permissions system.
  7. I tried to switch to a different account username and research, which also do not work.
  8. I compared all the settings on my desktop PC (that has the problem) with my laptop, which is also running Windows 7 Home Edition, and on which the search works very well. They are all the same.

  What can I try?

  Hi, Rob.

  I worked my way through all the tips, but could not solve the problem. (I do not stop my AV - Avast - as it is also used on my laptop, which has never had a problem.) Finally I, reluctantly, created a new profile and copied all my files across, and search now works as it should.

  Best regards

• Windows 7 in the Explorer search function does not work

  (1) I inserted a library to a project. This library is simply refers to a path on my hard drive

  (2) since I can't search for files or folders in the linrary (in the library itself or normal
  Explorer path). There is always a 0 result

  (3) in this 'library', I have subfolders. If I move a subfolder in another location on the hard drive, the research works

  (4) is there a solution to this problem in the meantime (I know that other users have the same problem)

  (5) if I use a shareware-Explorer, the research works
  But I'm on windows 7 (windows 7 ultimate), so this 'simple' search feature is a WORK MUST!

  (6) I think that its all about the library feature that really works, then, how can I get rid of the wihout library
  erase the existing roads on the hard drive? Is there an official statement for this?

  concerning

  Hi Peter,.

  Search in the new library or outside it should work perfectly well as in others.

  Try the following steps to understand what could cause this problem.

  Step 1: Run Troubleshooter

  For your reference:

  Open the troubleshooter for search and indexing

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-search-and-indexing-Troubleshooter

  Step 2: Create a new library

  Create a new library and include less fine test files. Now, look for a file in this folder. See if it works.

  In case you need to reference:

   

  Create a new library

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/create-a-new-library

  Step 3: Verify mode safe

  For more detailed investigation have a look if the result of the research work in safe mode. Post the return result so that we can help you with the same.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  Restart the computer and start the computer on the desk normally once you are done with the check in safe mode.

• V11.0.12 XI and IE11 Acrobat. Hyperlink inside the PDF does not work when the PDF file is opened with any browser.

  V11.0.12 XI and IE11 Acrobat. Hyperlink inside PDF is a blue rectangle and links to another PDF. When PDF is opened in Acrobat, the link works. When opened in any browser (IE, Firefox, Chrome) the link does not work. How can I get the link to work in browsers?

  I think it is a bug. I uninstalled Acrobat and reinstalled Acrobat v11.0.0. I tried the link and it works properly. Then, I installed each both updated and tested the hyperlink. Update 1-10, that the link works. However, when the 11.0.11 update is installed, the "Go to a page in another document" hyperlink stops working in browsers. V11.0.12 installation does not solve the problem. If I uninstall Acrobat and install v11.0.0 with updated v11.0.10, everything works fine.

• The research of the embedded index does not work for the PDF file opened with Adobe Reader in a browser

  Due to the way in which we use our Document management system, if we want to search through multiple or large files stored in our DMS PDF we merge PDF together and create an embedded index. This works perfectly well, when you open the PDF file in Adobe Reader standalone. Enter a particular term can bring 100 hits (very quickly) in the Adobe Reader search results pane.

  However, if we launch the PDF with Adobe Reader in Internet Explorer (any version), enter a term to search (contained in document) only get one result, that of the file name of the document itself.

  Unfortunately most of our users will access our DMS documents with internal links.

  Any ideas greatly appreciated.

• Search bar does not work.

  I am running FF25.0.1 on Windows 7, but I had this problem for several versions, do not remember when he started. The search bar does not work with any engine, I can type and the cursor flashes but it does not research when I hit enter or use the search button.

  I tried:
  -clean the uninstall/reinstall firefox
  -create a profile
  -in the course of running as an administrator
  -test in safe mode
  -suppression of research and searchmetadata.json, formhistory.sqlite, etc..
  -removal of the plugins to search then by reinstalling ff to generate news
  -use the searchreset addon

  After some of them, the search bar will work only once to help enter or the button before returning to the uselessness.

  I'm more or less certain that I don't have a malicious software. I do not use the address bar to search because it is a little more complicated to use terms, including the slashes or openings of the diaphragm, and put except that I do not have the functions which do not hang out.

  Start the computer in Mode safe mode with network support Windows (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if that helps.

  Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

  Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

  • 25 Firefox: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

  • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

  Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

  Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

• The index of the table of contents, search, does not work after hosting the files published in HTML5 Multiscreen

  I generated and publish files for html5 multiscreen. The default screen layout is Desktop_layout. When I go to index.htm directly from the published location, functions and details work perfectly. However, once I host the files published in IIS, type the URL in Google Chrome, the screen layout is all messed. Table of contents, Index, glossary, and the search function does not work. Please help/suggest/guide.

  Maybe this related to IIS? I host locally on IIS (8.0 8.1 Windows Pro) and Apache without any problems. But IIS can give wrong if the folder security options are not set correctly, then check that the IIS user owns the rights to complete reading on all directories and files.

  Kind regards

  If you have disabled JavaScript or automatic calculations in Reader preferences, you will get this type of behavior. You can test yourself by changing your preferences (Edit > preferences > JavaScript, Edit > preferences > forms > automatically calculate field values). All calculated fields depend on JavaScript behind the scenes.
