indexing

Both desktop + laptop = xp sp3 - I followed the procedure to stop
indexing which removes the icon from the taskbar by rt clicking the C drive,
unchecing the box below and choosing all sub folders files etc,: , and
letting it run then rebooting. All is fine with the desktop but the laptop
still has the icon. I tried several times rebooting after each but the
laptop won't respond.
What am I missing?
Thank you

perhaps, you can try
the indexing service
via admin tools.

The information I pasted is for other non techs benefits; it is probably the
same as the info given me,e.g., "use indexing service using admin tools." I
did not understand it due to my non tech level so I hope this helps others
with the problem.

*Indexing = my comp>C: =rt click>Properties>bottom unchk indexing>apply + it
does the work -when says trouble =ignore all, done = apply ok + use file to
exit.

* indexing = remove icon- rt click icon + eit, use services.msc- find
indexing service,double clk + disable it,apply,ok + use file to exit,reboot

ok, it's a good idea
to post the instructions.

i wish you would have
let us know, and we
could have provided
the instructions.

as a rule of thumb, right
clicking the mouse button
on many things in windows
provides additional options.
