6. The search in the computer doesn't work. What should I do?
This program comes with the system, and it must be in the WINDOWS folder of drive C. If you didn't delete it manually, or there was a file error in the computer, it may be that you forced the shutdown, which led to a file error or a virus in the computer. The latter is more likely. At this time, you need to kill virus, and the next 360 anti-virus full scan can kill virus. Then there is the problem of fixing the system. I recommend antivirus first, and then one-click system restoration. If the merchant installed system restore for you when you bought the computer, if you keep pressing F 1 1 when you restart the computer, the system will automatically restore. Don't forget to back up the important files of drive C before recovery.
If you really don't want to restore the system, the following methods are recommended:
Open the folder "C:\Windows\inf", find the file "srchasst.inf", right-click and select "Install" in the pop-up menu (you may be prompted to insert the system installation disk).
It may be that some misoperation deleted the files needed to run the search assistant. If you only need the search function and don't need the search assistant, you can turn off the search assistant. (Operating Steps: Click "Change Preferences" in the left window after starting the search, and then click "Don't use animated screen characters")
If you want to use the search function completely, you can reinstall it or try the following methods:
Method 1: Open the folder "C:\Windows\inf", find the file "srchasst.inf", click the right mouse button and select "Install" in the pop-up menu.
Method 2: Run the registry, navigate to "HKEY _ Current _ User \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Current Version \ Resource Manager \ cabi Status", create a new string "Use Search Assistant" and set its value to "No" (No must be lowercase, otherwise it will not work).
About Windows XP SP2 can't open the "search" function ————————
Q: I use SP2 Windows XP system. Recently, I couldn't open the file search function through "Start → Search → File or Folder" or press "Search" in the folder window, and I couldn't find the file I needed to run the search option. You may need to run setup. You may need to run the installation), how to fix this failure?
A: This is a classic fault, I believe many friends have encountered it, because even if there is no search assistant function, it will not affect the normal operation of the system, so many friends don't care much. In fact, there are two reasons for the failure, one is file corruption, and the other is the failure of DLL file registration. The recovery method is as follows:
(1) Open the %systemroot%\inf directory and find the Srchasst.inf file. Then right-click the file, select the menu "Install", and insert the installation CD according to the system prompt. After the installation is completed, check whether the search can be run, and if not, continue to the next step.
(2) Open Notepad, enter the following contents, then save the contents as a. BAT file and run it.
CD/d“% SystemRoot % \ System32”
Regsvr 32/ USA /msxml3.dll
regsvr 32/msxml3.dll
export
PS: After reinstalling the system, the search function cannot be turned on. Successfully repaired by method (1)! It seems that %systemroot%\inf is also a useful folder and cannot be deleted casually.
