Hi,

I would like to send some issues/defects on Windows-XP as a User and as a
Software Engineer-Testing.

1. System is not clearing the Search string for New Search in Windows-Search
2. Displaying the previous search results for Blank Search

I am not sure about your requirements, if these issues are in the part of
your requirement then its fine.

In that case sorry for your time in this mail otherwise just have a look
into this

If you can give the concern department email id, i can send you the detailed
document to that

Regards

I have no idea where the correct destination for your comments would be, but
I would point out that there doesn't appear to be a lot of MS oversight of
this newsgroup - I seldom see comments from any MS employees, even though MS
runs the servers.

And XP isn't getting a lot of further development support, being close to
end of life, so very minor things like this aren't likely to ever be
addressed.

In fact, these things may well be specific to the state of your system; on
mine, these fields *are* cleared on subsequent searches following reboots.

Would suggest that you try clearing temp files, and cookies first.
ccleaner can be very helpful for this - www.ccleaner.com . During
install, you can choose to install, or not, a Yahoo toolbar. I generally
say no. Let it clear out temp files and cookies, and see if your results
don't change.
