I am a C# sharp developer and have a need to do some searching in Windows 8 from a Windows Service. Is it possible to search apps, settings and files and other search contract registered providers from a normal Windows Service?

How would I go about doing this, what namespaces should I look into etc? I am struggling to bridge WinRT with the rest of Windows here.

  • if your app is going to be distributed through the Windows Store, you won't be able to do this, since it won't achieve certification. You'd need to host a service on a publically accessible endpoint. – Jim O'Neil Apr 19 '13 at 00:02
  • This does not need to be distributed through the Windows Store. – CosmosKey Apr 22 '13 at 22:20
