I suggest that you try manually start the service Windows search and check if it works.
(a) click Start type services.msc in the search box, and then click OK.
(b) in the Services (Local) list, right-click Windows Search, and then click Properties.
(c) if the drop-down list Startup type is set to the value off, select Automaticfrom the drop-down list Startup type and then click OK.
(d) click thefile menu and then click exit.
If fails it above step then check out the link below and run the fixit from microsoft tool available.

Windows Update service will not work after upgrading the hard drive
I'm running Windows Vista 64 bit, Home Premium SP2 with 8 GB of ram. I recently cloned my hard drive OEM of 500 GB, 5400 RPM Toshiba MK5055GSX via a standalone, dual drive bay dock for upgrade to a 750 GB, 7200 RPM, Western Digital WD7500BPKT. Since the clone/upgrade, Service Windows Update does not work and gives the message: ' Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. " You may have to restart your computer. "And Yes, I checked and everything related to Windows Update seems to be 'turned on' or well defined, but the service will not work. Notes; Windows Update still works with the player "OEM", it is only the new WD drive that has the problem. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion on getting this problem is resolved.

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.

You can use the SearchReset extension to reset preferences to default values.

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.

Wireless connection error - error 193:Oxc1 - Windows wireless service does not work
I have a Dell Studio XPS until yesterday worked fine. I plug in a memory (USB) card and that's when the problem occurred.
Today when I started, it connect to internet via WiFi. The map shows in Device Manager and are passed through controls to enable the automatic. Wired connection is not a problem that's just a very long Ethernet run and WiFi was better. I have other computers on the network, there is a problem with what I think is that the registry is corrupted. It seems that the Wireless LAN and audio are butting heads as the audio is displayed as an X when I try to fix the connection.
On the bottom bar on Windows 7, it shows a signal with an X on it. Help, please!

Hello
Please perform a clean boot mode, press Windows key + R on your keyboard and type services.msc. Access to services that are defined as disabled and edit them in the manual.
Restart your computer (stay in a clean boot) and return to services.msc. Do not open any other application or browser. Any device that is set to automatic, but it is not started, change its startup type to manual. Any application that is manual, but is started, the change automatically.
I also recommend that run you check disk, to check for any errors/bad hard disk sectors.

Why Windows Update service does not work on my computer?
After a few months of not be used, my Toshiba Satellite L35 (Windows Vista Home Basic; Computer laptop Service Pack 2) can not access Microsoft Updates. Whenever I try, I get a message "the service is not running" and tells me to restart, I did several times without success. Norton 360, and Spybot, indicates no problems.
It's like something has removed or disconnected from all the Windows Update process. "Update history" produces a blank page.

Suggestion 1: Get rid of Norton and Spybot Search and Destroy. I do not recommend Norton/McAfee products, especially the suites (I recommend NO suites - simple is better.) Spybot has been a good product, but a few years back, he just stopped doing as well.
