Help! I've Tweaked myself!

[Ida Fiyou]

sigh,.. I thought I had this figured out but then I clicked the wrong
thingy somewhere in TweakUI for XPpro. I wanted to remove the Search
button from the Start Button Menu which I did successfully, but that
also took it out of the Windows Explorer menu bar at the top of the
window- not what I wanted. I finally got the Search button to show up
in WE again but when I click it nothing happens, it's visible but
disabled . Now I'm lost. I want the search to work in WE but not show
up in the Start Button Menu. If anyone can think of what I might have
done to arrive at this unfortunate set of circumstances I'd appreciate
it. Thank you for your time.

Ida,

The easiest way to remove Search from the Start Menu is to do it by right
clicking the Start button, selecting Properties, Customize and changing it
in the options there. I was unable to find this setting in TweakUI, so I
expect you went into the Group Policy Editor (from Tweak's Policies menu)
and disabled Search from there.
