While installing NAV 2013 R2 on Windows Server 2012 the Installer gives an error message of missing component of Windows Search.

ERROR - "The following external program are prerequisites to one of more of the selected product components. They must be present on your computer before the configuration can be installed. For more information, see the system requirement's for Microsoft Dynamics NAV.

If your server is Windows Server 2012 then follow the steps below -

1. Start Server Manager.


2. Click on Add Roles and Feature From Center Navigation Pane.


3. Select Installation Type as Role based or feature based installation, click Next.


4. IF Using Hyper V select the appropriate Server, click Next.


5. Navigate to Features from Right Menu and Select the Windows Search service.


6. Click Next and select Install.


Finish the wizard and now you should have the Windows Search service up and running.



Hope this helps during installation of Middle Tier of Navision on Server.
