Help Please - Regedit
Hi,
I am trying to delete a folder within the registry, the folder I believe is the one that is causing my search preferences problem. I have deleted all the values that the program placed in the registry, but the one folder won't delete, I get an error message telling me that it cannot open the file and therefore it will not delete. Any work-around for this? My original problem is that somehow, probably through surfing the Web, a search engine called "Search Results" installed itself, I have used several suggestions from groups as to being able to get my preferences back in order to choose another engine, but it will not let me. Thank you, Tom |

Thank you, Tom Hi Mary, Actually no. It is "Search Results" I finally located it as a url under the address of ah-ha.com and was able to delete it. The result however is that it also did something to my search preferences so that I can longer select a particular engine.............still working on that fix. Thank you for the suggestion however, it is appreciated. Tom |
