Help and support search window empty

Thanks for the tip.

I visited the website, and followed the instructions for uninstalling and
reinstalling the Help & Support Center, which was the only fix that seemed
relevant to my situation. It didn't solve the problem.

It's not worth the hassle anymore. I really don't need keyword searches that
badly. If the subject is indexed, I can look it up. I'll just write it off as
another Windows feature that doesn't work the way it's supposed to.

Thanks again for your help.

Phil
