Nothing.

The Config has the gathrprm.txt and schema.txt files as per the Tutorial by Brink.
I have no other folders.

Re: Search Indexing Problem

So you don't have the Applications folder in Data?
If not, create the Applications folder and Temp folder
Within Applications folder create a Windows folder.

Reboot and see if it works.
If doesn't, i wouls suggest anyway to run a hijackthis to check if this is not due to a virus (hijackthis.de)

Re: Search Indexing Problem

It's working now! Yay!
Indexing Options is now fully working with nothing greyed out.
Windows Search service no longer gives the "cannot find path" error.

Current folder tree:

Once I created the Applications folder, Temp was created automatically.

sidney1st thank you very much for your help.
I knew you French wouldn't let me down
