Default Search results disappearing

I click on "Start" and do a search. The results show. I select one to see if it is what I want. It isn't. Now I have to do the search all over again?



How can I save the results to check a different entry?

If I have several results, then I lost track as to which one I have tried. It looks like I have to manually keep a list of searches, results and what I have tried from the list.

What gives?

I have the same problem, just transitioned (forced down) from Office 2003 to Office 2007

This must be a "feature" in the new (and dis-improved) version.

Maybe MS thinks we are perfect since we "chose" us use their software and that we always do everything correctly on the first attempt.

I believe this is probably a Windows issue caused by selecting a search result item from the Start menu, which closes the Start menu and forces you to perform to perform the search all over again.

When you do a search, try clicking on the "See more results" link before clicking on any individual items. This will bring your search up in a new window, from which you should be able to open items resulting from the search without losing the search window itself.

Hope this helps.
