Start button "Find" no longer works properly
« on: July 29, 2015, 02:34:49 pm »
Since I did the last "Pro" update and ran the Tweaking program. the Windows Start button "Find" no longer finds the file or photos or programs I am searching for. I use this constantly to find pictures or folders or programs quickly. Now it says "No results found" on items I had no problems with before. Do I need to go back to the previous "Pro" version? I am running Win 7 Ultimate. Comments or opinions?

I havent ever had that happen on any of the systems, even with the new versions. Nothing changed in the repairs to cause that.

I did find that it is a common problem and there is a way to fix it.

There is a few others we can try if those dont work. Let me know which one you do and which one fixes it and I will see if it is possible to add it to the repairs :-)
