| Newbie | Re: Search Context Menu Item - Restore After Vista SP1 Shawn, If I right click on a drive, I still don't see the Search item. Only on subfolders. For example, I want to do a Search on everything on an SD card E: by it is not there on a right click. I have to go down to a subfolder. Know of any way to do this as well? |

| Administrator | Re: Search Context Menu Item - Restore After Vista SP1 Hi Bob-C, This will not add Search to the context menu for a drive, only the Start menu button and folders. ![]() You can use Advanced Search to do what you want. Just select the E:\ drive in the Location drop down menu to search from. This tutorial will show you how to if needed. Advanced Search Update: Search is now included for the Drive context menu in this tutorial. Hope this helps, Shawn |

| Administrator | Re: Search Context Menu Item - Restore After Vista SP1 Hi TWF, There is not a Search context menu item in Internet Explorer for Vista, but I'm not sure what would be different than what the Internet Explorer Search box would offer. If you mean to search inside the current webpage, then the Find window might be what you are wanting. Find If the above is not what you mean or want, then please let me know with more details on what you want to search for. Maybe there will be an alternative method available. Hope this helps, Shawn |

| Intermediate | Re: Search Context Menu Item - Restore After Vista SP1 Hi, Shawn. No, I don't mean the "Find" feature. I'd like to be able to highlight a specific word(s). Then, right-click that word, which that menu would have "Search". It would save time, by not having to copy/paste into "Search" box & having to click to "Search". I hope this helps explain, because it was something that could be done on WinXP, by adding the "Search" w/a RegEdit file...downloaded from a WinXP Tips/Tweaks site. Thx. |

| Administrator | Re: Search Context Menu Item - Restore After Vista SP1 IE7 in Vista does not have that feature anymore, but I believe it was added to the IE8 beta. You might give it a try to see how you like it. Download and Information: Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 Now Available IE8 beta Search details: Internet Explorer 8: Faster and easier Hope this helps, Shawn |

| Intermediate | Re: Search Context Menu Item - Restore After Vista SP1 Great That just plain sucks! After reading/watching the IE8 Beta info, I'm not too sure it'll be what I'd be interested in. However, I do appreciate your assistance.Oh, hey, do you think that RegEdit file I did on my WinXP IE7 will work? |
