Vista - Search Enhancement Pack

09-01-2009

I am having the same problem with the Search Enhancement Pack folder but your
suggestion did not work because it still pops when I restart my computer. I
get a message from Windows Installer that says, "This act is only valid for
products that are currently installed."

The only thing that I found to do the trick for now, until Microsoft comes up
with the real fix, is below.
After trying all of the suggestions I could find here or anywhere and even
some of my own ideas I finally came up with one that worked of my own.
I did this:
I reinstalled it all.
Then go to "start", "run" and type in "misconfig"
Choose "Startup" tab
Look for "point32" and uncheck the box
Click "Apply"
Click "Restart"
After restart the window "System Configuration Utility" window will open.
In that window you put a checkmark into the box that says "Don't show this
message or launch the System Configuration Utility when windows start."
Click "OK"
"Restart windows"
That annoying window should now be gone.
It worked for me and I'm 99% sure it will work for you.
It took me awhile to find this solution.
I am new at posting so, I do hope it was okay that, by accident, deleted the
message I chose to reply to.
Good luck everyone!
P.S. I have Windows XP
And when Microsoft comes up with a 'real fix', then you just do the repeat
steps above only this time re-check the "point32" box, restart, only click
"OK" in "System Configuration Utility" window and get the real fix from
Microsoft either by Microsoft Update or however they decide they will put out
that real fix, if ever.

Don't understand why MS hasn't done an update fix on this after nearly a year
of the problem being reported. I, fortunately, haven't had to put up with it
that long, since I've always hated anything tied to "Messenger" or "Live
Messenger" or whatever monicker they stuck on it over the years - it was
always a confusing pain - and I only recently opted to get talked into
Windows Live; basically because they force us to go there by hobbling,
incapacitating or shutting down "old" features we're used to using, like
"Calendar", or making it difficult to navigate the old haunts or ways.

Typical MS. They coerce you over to new formats before they've got all the
bugs out. If you try to seek "help" from MS, they want you to identify the
product. But there is no easy way to decipher what product "Search
Enhancement Pack" eminates from, other than some ambiguous program folder
called "Microsoft". Even if you knew what master product was involved, they
want you to pay for them helping you deal with their screwup. Too bad the
company doesn't have to pay each of us by the hour for time spent trying to
fix garbage like this - Bill wouldn't be so rich, would he. A few minutes
spent by a savvy engineer and an express automatic update, and hours of human
effort at the customer end would be saved.

Ah, for that perfect a world.

I will give CJconkie's idea a whirl. If there are features in that pack
that are actually useful (part of Bing?), I won't lose them; just gets rid
of the automatic window startup. Thanks CJ.

OK, FOLLOWUP:

CJconkie's procedure DID NOT WORK after all.
Will now have to try Jonathan Kay's idea, which eliminates the program, not
just the annoying startup window.

Bummer.

I too am trying everything to get rid of this silly box...

CJconkie, I'm confused as to how to get from type in "misconfig" to choose
"Startup" tab. I don't have that option. When i type in misconfig and click
okay I simply get a message saying windows cannot find it?

Thanks.

P.s... I've tried everything else suggested on these pages and nothing else
works.

It should be "msconfig" not "misconfig".
The rest i dunno about.

Hope it helps.

__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4555 (20091029) __________

The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus.

This is about the most annoying this that ISN'T a virus that I've ever
experienced.
I tried both of the codes provided earlier in this thread, and I also tried
to find the seago file in startup which didn't exist.
I then went the "point 32" route which was last posted and it didn't exist...

So how the hell do I get rid of this search enhancement pack box?
As soon as I downloaded the new messenger I've had quite a few problems. One
including my video card. It is a Nvidia 5200 FX and it now rejects the newest
drivers from nvidia and the only ones that work are the original Dell drivers
that came with the comp.

Here is the hijack log....

Thanks... still didn't work though.

When I go to program files and try and delete the Microsoft folder it says I
don't have permission too.

Grrr

I've done it! I don't know how, but I've done it!

HOWEVER... I feel I've gone to places I shouldn't have gone.

Touched things I shouldn't have touched.

Interfered with things I shouldn't have interfered with.

As someone who knows nothing about puters... I may have 'done stuff', bad
stuff! eek

CJconkie n/a posts	Re: Search Enhancement Pack The only thing that I found to do the trick for now, until Microsoft comes up with the real fix, is below. After trying all of the suggestions I could find here or anywhere and even some of my own ideas I finally came up with one that worked of my own. I did this: I reinstalled it all. Then go to "start", "run" and type in "misconfig" Choose "Startup" tab Look for "point32" and uncheck the box Click "Apply" Click "Restart" After restart the window "System Configuration Utility" window will open. In that window you put a checkmark into the box that says "Don't show this message or launch the System Configuration Utility when windows start." Click "OK" "Restart windows" That annoying window should now be gone. It worked for me and I'm 99% sure it will work for you. It took me awhile to find this solution. I am new at posting so, I do hope it was okay that, by accident, deleted the message I chose to reply to. Good luck everyone! P.S. I have Windows XP And when Microsoft comes up with a 'real fix', then you just do the repeat steps above only this time re-check the "point32" box, restart, only click "OK" in "System Configuration Utility" window and get the real fix from Microsoft either by Microsoft Update or however they decide they will put out that real fix, if ever.

hafcanadian n/a posts	Re: Search Enhancement Pack Don't understand why MS hasn't done an update fix on this after nearly a year of the problem being reported. I, fortunately, haven't had to put up with it that long, since I've always hated anything tied to "Messenger" or "Live Messenger" or whatever monicker they stuck on it over the years - it was always a confusing pain - and I only recently opted to get talked into Windows Live; basically because they force us to go there by hobbling, incapacitating or shutting down "old" features we're used to using, like "Calendar", or making it difficult to navigate the old haunts or ways. Haf Canadian Typical MS. They coerce you over to new formats before they've got all the bugs out. If you try to seek "help" from MS, they want you to identify the product. But there is no easy way to decipher what product "Search Enhancement Pack" eminates from, other than some ambiguous program folder called "Microsoft". Even if you knew what master product was involved, they want you to pay for them helping you deal with their screwup. Too bad the company doesn't have to pay each of us by the hour for time spent trying to fix garbage like this - Bill wouldn't be so rich, would he. A few minutes spent by a savvy engineer and an express automatic update, and hours of human effort at the customer end would be saved. Ah, for that perfect a world. I will give CJconkie's idea a whirl. If there are features in that pack that are actually useful (part of Bing?), I won't lose them; just gets rid of the automatic window startup.

Whitea207 n/a posts	Re: Search Enhancement Pack This is about the most annoying this that ISN'T a virus that I've ever experienced. I tried both of the codes provided earlier in this thread, and I also tried to find the seago file in startup which didn't exist. I then went the "point 32" route which was last posted and it didn't exist... So how the hell do I get rid of this search enhancement pack box? As soon as I downloaded the new messenger I've had quite a few problems. One including my video card. It is a Nvidia 5200 FX and it now rejects the newest drivers from nvidia and the only ones that work are the original Dell drivers that came with the comp. Here is the hijack log....

PuterFool n/a posts	Re: Search Enhancement Pack I've done it! I don't know how, but I've done it! HOWEVER... I feel I've gone to places I shouldn't have gone. Touched things I shouldn't have touched. Interfered with things I shouldn't have interfered with. As someone who knows nothing about puters... I may have 'done stuff', bad stuff! eek
