Windows Search draws complete blank
Hello All,
I've had a good hour or so on Google and cannot find a solution to this issue so here goes:
All of a sudden, Windows Search will not return any results. I normally only use this to get to a program in the Start Menu quickly so if I need to access the services.msc I just type it into the Start Menu search.
Now all I get is:
Documents
Files
Pictures
Control Panel
listed with blank, white file icons next to them. Hitting enter after typing 'services.msc' does nothing.
The blank files listed are just that - blank 0kb files. If I click on them all I get is a security message saying I cannot open them.
I have removed and reinstalled Windows Search, also tried flushing the Index cache all to no avail.
Any ideas?
Dan
