Through Toolbar; v2.05, Defaults, Indexing complete, what else should I
check? This sweet little thing has worked for months, and I LOVE IT!

Nothing found at all? For everything you search for? How about an index rebuild?

Really had tried quite a few things that are prominent in various Folders.
So, went with your suggestion for a Rebuild...arrgghhh! But, it's done, and
returning results again! Yea! Thanks (Any ideas why?)

I would only guess that the index got corrupt somehow, but not in a way that the
Search engine knew that it was corrupt. I'm glad this it worked for you!

I wish I could find the solution as well. I've had this problem for months.
Reinstalling and rebuilding does nothing. It still finds nothing no matter
what I search for.

WDS worked perfectly for me earlier. Now I rely on Copernic, but I would
rather use WDS.
