Fancy search gone
This is a discussion about Fancy search gone in the Windows Software category; Ok this is gonna sound kinda odd but i don't know of any other way to put it. The 'fancy' type of search with all the cutsey Windows XP buttons and the search assistant have gone walk-about. I don't know what happened to it, its just not there anymore.

Maybe you switched to classic win2k search mode? you can switch back with tweak ui for xp or some other tweak program.
Go to My Computer, push F3 or click Search.
Click Change Preferences.
Click Change Files And Folders Search Behavior.
Uncheck the Advanced option.
The standard and advanced styles offer the same choices but the presentation is different.

OP
I found out how to fix it, there is a setting in TweakUI for XP that allows you to en/disable "classic" search in XP. My bad, 9 times out of 10 when something f-s up it is due to some stupid tweak i did.
