Hello,

I would like to programmatically set the Windows Desktop
Search options without using the WDS Options executable. I would also like
to force a stop, start or rebuild programmatically.

I am aware ofhe command line options available from WindowsSearch.exe but
whilst handy, you can make no changes to the configuration.

I have attempted to edit the corresponding registry keys but I am left with
few options to ask WDS to refresh these new settings.

If anyone has any suggestions I would be all ears.

Thanks
