Until a week ago Salamander worked fine. Than I thougt an update from 2.5b10 to 11 would do but it didn't work.
Even the reinstallation and wiping of the registry for altap and servant didnt do it. So which windows services are required and which rights do i have to grant. The search function also doesnt run on an admin account.
I suppose Windows Start > Search > For Files and Folders... is disabled too?
In the Registry HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
change the key NoFind from 1 to 0.
Servant Salamander 2.5 uses these Windows Explorer policies. I have no idea what changed your Registry settings. Try to remeber what software have you installed recently.
have found that I caused it myself. I wanted to get rid of the search button in the start menu cause i relied on the advanced features of salamander. Wasnt aware that the menu entry also disables search at all.

I have encountered the very same problem, and that's why I used Total Commander when I need to find something, which was pretty annoying :-/ - what about changing this behaviour in SS as TC does not care, or enable some setting for it? (And anyway thanks for the registry tip, no more need of TC )

Servant Salamander respects system policies such as NoDrives, NoFind, NoNetHood, NoNetConnectDisconnect, etc. You can modify these settings in Windows Registry (if you have permissions to do so).

OK, but user first must know what is the problem (is it at least possible to improve the error message with some information of this kind?). I have administrator rights on my PC but was not aware of this (that hiding Search in Start menu can affect this).
