How to Reinstall the Windows Live Toolbar

Windows Live Toolbar lets you search from anywhere on your computer.

The Windows Live Toolbar makes computer searching easier by letting users search from anywhere. The toolbar displays popular searches as suggestions while the user is typing. Additionally, smart menus will show up when the user highlights text. Within these menus, users can access more information such as map previews or weather forecasts. Since the program is installed on the computer, reinstallation procedures follow that of most computer-based programs.
