SP1 search bug?
Installed SP1, now when I right click on any folder in windows explorer, the
search option is missing from the context menu? Tried all my drives and a bunch of different folders, still no search. I enabled Windows Search service again, had it disabled since it eats to many resources, still no search. Pre-SP1 of course did not do this. Anyone else see this? If not what should I look for? Comfortable.

SP1 search bug?
This will show you how but I think it's too much trouble.
http://www.msfn.org/board/Vista-SP1-...u-t113125.html An easier way is to create a desktop shortcut(s) to common search locations and drag them to the Quick Launch toolbar.
