hello folks, wondering if anyone can tell me how the search box which should appear above the Start button might be recovered - mine has gone awol, which is a tad annoying
AND
I have added some games to a library, and now want to put another one in, but can't remember how I did it, and can't find any 'add' options in the relevant menus.

Can you help please?:)

For the search box, from what you stated it sounds like you went to Control Panel > Uninstall a Program > Turn Windows features on or off, and selected the box to remove Windows Search. (I'm not at my Windows 7 PC right now so I can't give a screen shot)

I think you have hit the button; I went into CP and the features option and Search wasn't ticked, so have ticked it and am confident that indeed it will appear on next boot. Thank you very much :)
