    After installing Visio Professional 2013, can No longer open Windows Search email results,
    either double or right clicking, screenshot below.

    Message icon also changed from gold to blue, even though the 2013 version of Outlook is Not installed.

    Any ideas how to fix this without uninstalling Visio?

    Using following with latest updates:
    - Microsoft Visio 2013 (15.0.4420.1017) MSO (15.0.4454.1002) 32-bit
    - Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit.
    - Outlook 2010 SP1.

    Troubleshooting steps taken:
    - Ran "Find and fix problems with Windows Search" Troubleshooter, no issues found.
    - In "Windows Features" turned Windows Search off, restarted, then back on, index took while to rebuild.

    As an interim measure, ran "System Restore" to restore system to a pre Visio installation state, Windows Search now works again as normal, however no Visio 2013.

    MS took it out (or depreciated it) and you must search from within Outlook. There is a MS Technote article on it.

    OK, so help me here.... I get it, MS decided NOT to allow searching.

    Hasn't Google taken over the world (so to say) by allowing SEARCHING?

    Why would MS take it out?

    I have a multiple mailbox outlook (6 to be exact) so have 6 different pst files (all POP). How in the world can I search for things one at a time?

    Please MS, rethink your search strategy before people like Google take it all away from you again (remember google desktop search).

    This, is simply, ridiculous.  I have never understood the wisdom of removing features in windows that many users rely on by microsoft.  They must be on a mission to really P$$$ off their customers.
