Default Add Bing To Windows 7 Start Menu - 06-02-2009, 03:26 PM

1 of the places where you can add Bing to is the Start Menu, screen shot:



How to:
  1. Download & install the Search Connector for Windows 7
  2. Start –> Run –> regedit
  3. HKEY_CURRENT_USER –> Software –> Policies –> Microsoft –> Windows –> Explorer
Note: If Explorer does not exit create it by:
  1. Right Click –> New –> Key … name it Explorer
  2. Now under Explorer: Right click –> New –> String Value … name it Library0
Double click & enter the following for value:

Quote:
C:\Users\User\Searches\bing.searchconnector-ms
Note: Replace ‘User’ with the User name of your account.

Restart Explorer from the Windows Task Manager for this to take effect.
