I think I might have a virus attack because not only it blew my index file, it took away the outlook repair (scanpst.exe) file too. I did a restore from the backup and rebuilt the index. It is working fine now.

I want to add that I still have the "Search Indexed Locations" folder which would let me search my Documents, pictures and Excel contents. But the Outlook contents cannot be found.

I am on CS 4.0.2 and it worked great until Windows 8.1 upgrade. After the upgrade, the start menu kept being replaced by the Windows metro start on the lower left corner. I can bring it back by running ClassicStartMenu.exe but it will soon be replaced again. Any fix to this?

It may be related to the new status bar feature. For example it may be trying to display the total size of all files in the search folder, which can take a long time. To verify that, open Classic Explorer settings and uncheck "Show status bar" in the Status Bar tab. That solved the proble...
