Windows 7 Start Menu Search Gone?

[pbel]

Hello, after i did some tweaking on windows 7(first time ever) i somehow disabled the start search on the start menu. Now when i open the start menu i cant search which is bad. Paese help

Right click on the task bar and select properties, click on the start menu tab and then click on customize. At the bottom you'll see a button that says default settings, click that and it'll set everything in the start menu back to default.

Let me know if that doesn't work.

No, it does not work :/

Go to Control Panel\Programs and Features\Turn Windows features on or off, and enable Indexing service and Windows search
I managed to tweak it off too and it had me worried for a while

edit: yeah, better late than never..

Did you do it in the registry or through some tweaking program?

Hi sakr232000 and Welcome to The Forum.

Did you re-boot in between the removal / adding?
