INFO: How to change the Today search field in Treo 700wx or Treo 750 to Windows Live

If you’d like to change the search field on a Treo 7XXw to Windows Live, here’s the steps to do it:

First you’ll need to download a registry editor like PHM RegEdit

Here are the steps to add Live or any other search:

  • In the editor you’ll need to navigate to HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftTodayItems”Web Search”
  • In the Engine key you’ll need to increment the NumEngines
  • Under the Engine key you’ll need to create another key “2” in my case
  • In the “2” key you’ll need to add the following Name/Value pairs.  Do not put spaces in the EngineName or it will not work.

Enjoy!  Here are some screen shots:
