Vista Indexing Problem / Deleting , Renaming , Moving Etc.

I have Vista Home premium and recently i have been getting errors sayin the search indexer has stopped working so i looked up a solution and one site said that if i delete all the indexing files and restart my computer the computer will re-generate the indexing files and i wont get that error. I did that and of course it dident work and i dident have computer restore to to date setup so i coudlent restore it to the day before.

so i just left it alone and ever since it takes about 3-5 min to delete,rename,move files or do anything like that. the delete thing sais 0 seconds remaining but takes up to 5 min to even rename a folder or create a new folder..

same with files and everything Etc..
Can anyone help!

Re: Vista Indexing Problem / Deleting , Renaming , Moving Etc.

Meaning it ran successfully but with no change in behavior?

Or how specifically did it not work?


Next step would be the Recovery Options as seen here:

John Barnett's Windows Vista Support: Windows Vista Repair Options


Failing that and without a backup a reinstall is probably in order.

Re: Vista Indexing Problem / Deleting , Renaming , Moving Etc.

If there were a step prior to a reinstall perhaps you might find it in one of these ideas:

search indexer has stopped working - Google Search


Turning OFF this Service is widely suggested.

That might be all you need to do.


Another tack is this update:

Which also raises the question: Have you installed SP1?

If not you should. Windows Update.
