Requirements: Windows XP SP2 Office 2007 Problems Although the instructions “SAY” the upgrade process works, it did not for me…..   After the upgrade process I did a reboot and when I came back up, desktop search was broken.  Although all the options were there (including the features which were added back from the older Windows Desktop Search 2.x and Live Desktop Search) such as the feature to add UNC searches, no results were returned. I even tried a re-index with no success. I was able to get search going again by un-installing the Windows Desktop Search 3.01 doing a reboot then re-installing Windows Desktop Search 3.01.  After I did this AND re-indexed my PC, outlook and PST’s, WDS is once again working. Very Bad News The one feature that I “REALLY” wanted is still missing from the Windows Desktop Search 3.01 “upgrade”.  Yup, you know what I’m going to say.  the “Show Conversation” options is still missing. Back to the drawing board for Microsoft.  At least I can index my network shares again.   Comment Name * Email *
