My instant search into the start menu is not showing the results.
As you can see in the print screens

Does that happen with all programs?

 

[Unable]

Yes it does... all programs and files! Teamviewer is just one example

How is the Indexing options setup? Screen shot of it would be helpful.

 

[Unable]

There you have.. Thanks for the fast answers

 

[Frostmourne]

Can you reset the index back to default locations and rebuild it, then reboot?

 

[Unable]

Already done that... Didnt work

 

[Frostmourne]

Run sfc /scannow at an elevated command prompt to see if any corrupt system files can be fixed.

 

[Unable]

100% nothing found... :X
its all ok with sfc /scannow

I had this problem once because I unchecked the 'Search with public folders' option (customize start menu via right clicking the taskbar).

 

[Unable]

No. I have already on!

 

[Unable]

What now? :X
Thanks for helping but still not solved

Remove the C: drive from the search index for the time being.

This is a very bad state to get into as you are pretty much stuck unless you know the magic regkey to set to fix it. The bad state persists across reboots. You most likely got into this state by pasting a path into the search box, hitting home, then holding down the delete key. It is also likely that you have, at some point, changed your keyboard repeat rate setting to be slower than normal. Anyway, on to the fix.

1) Open regedit
2) Navigate to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderTypes\{ef87b4cb-f2ce-4785-8658-4ca6c63e38c6}\TopViews\{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}
3) You should see that "GroupBy" is set to null. This is the problem. Change "GroupBy" to "System.StartMenu.Group" (without the quotes)
4) Restart explorer

Congratulations on stumbling upon one of the nastiest bugs in Win7!

Just one more little question... can I disable UAC just for one program?
Thanks once more

 

[Frostmourne]

No, its systemwide. Those programs shouldn't be used. They are insecure and poorly coded.
