disinstallare Windows Search

Ennesimo formattone, anzi, ennesimo HD nuovo.. Ennesima re-re-re-re-installazione di Windows XP.. Click click click, ok, avanti, sì, va bene, questo sì.. E questo!? Gli aggiornamenti! Oooops.. Ma io.. Ero -abbastanza- sicuro.. Invece.. Mi son trovato Windows Search 4.
E non me ne faccio NULLA.

«Vabè dai, è lì in Insallazione Applicazioni..»: NO, non c'è (strano, eppure è la4.0).

«Lo estirpo con CCleaner..»: NO, c'è, ma non si disinstalla (uninstaller not found).

«San Google pensaci te..»: NO, erroraccio di coso non cosato..  (%systemroot%\$NtUninstallKB940157$\spuninst\spuninst.exe )

«Ennesima googlata»: SI! http://www.davidarno.org/ e senza pensarci due volte passo al punto 3, scarico, abracadabra, devo riavviare..

To remove Windows Search version 4 from XP, try the following steps:

1. Start by running up Add & Remove Programs from the control panel and look for Windows Desktop Search in the list. Unlike with version 3, Windows Search v4 should be there.
2. If not, open a cmd window (click on Start, then “Run..” and type cmd in the Run dialogue that then appears). Then copy and paste the following line into the cmd window:

   %systemroot%\$NtUninstallKB940157$\spuninst\spuninst.exe

3. If that also fails and you get a “The system cannot find the path specified.” error, then I have zipped up a copy that you can download from here. To work out where to extract it to, type:

   echo %systemroot%

into your cmd window and note the location it points to (it is likely to be C:\Windows, but may not be if you upgraded to XP for Windows 2000 for example). Open the zip file, and extract the $NtUninstallKB940157$to this location. Now repeat step 2.
