INTRODUCTION
Microsoft has released the hotfix rollup package for Windows Desktop Search version 02.06.5000.5378 that is dated May 30, 2006.

This hotfix package fixes the following issues:
 * Prevents Desktop Search index corruption in roaming user profile environments.
 * Lets the Prevent Indexing Certain Paths policy setting include the path root and its hierarchy.
 * Changes the Prevent Indexing Certain Paths policy setting so that users cannot add unauthorized paths.
 * Changes the Prevent Indexing of Uncached Exchange Folders policy setting so that user settings are retained on removal of this policy.
 * Adds the Prevent User Defined Locations policy setting to prevent users from changing indexing target locations in the Windows Desktop Search Indexing Options dialog box.
 * Lets you crawl stores by using a forward slash in the name.

The new policy settings are defined in the updated .adm template. This template is available in the update that is described in the &quot;More Information&quot; section.
