    Microsoft Knowledge Base

    How do you search MS KB now? When I visit MS Supports, it uses Bing to search and I can't figure out how to search only the KB. In the past KB is a separate section at MS, now I can't seems to find that section.

    Unfortunately, it appears that Microsoft has taken away that option. You can show the added search options, and select Microsoft Answers and Windows Online, but that probably still won't be exactly what you want.

    Another possible method might be to use Google to search for "Microsoft Knowledge Base" followed by whatever topic you are looking for. No guarantee that will work however.

    Go to Google, type in site:support.microsoft.com, skip a space, then type in whatever you're looking for.

    Thank you guys.
    It's annoying to not able to search just KB and have to go thru' Bing which returns results from all different sources. If I want a general search, I'd rather use Google.
    SypwareDr's method works the best. Google returns only KB articles. Thx, Doc!
