Search function from Windows 7 Start button not working
When I try to run a file search from the Start button, firstly the pop-up box clears when I type in the first letter of the search and I am unable to run a search. If I click "see more results" I get the message "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." I have not added any new programs, only Windows updates and use Avast Free as my anti-virus defence, which updates itself several times a day.
