My find and replace has stopped working.

Background:
I have a paid version Visual Studio 2010 installed. I also was running a trial version of Ultimate. However, the trial expired so I un-installed Ultimate. After the un-install of Ultimate, I can no longer do a global search in VS Professional.

Anyone have any ideas? Where should Microsoft.VisualStudio.Progression.GraphModel reside and why is it causing my search to fail? I tried running a repair on VS Professional without luck.

Error Message:
In the find results, I get the following:

Find all “test”, Subfolders, Find Results 1, “Current Project”
The composition produced a single composition error. The root cause is provided below. Review the CompositionException.Errors property for more detailed information.

1) Could not load file or assembly ‘Microsoft.VisualStudio.Progression.GraphModel, Version=10.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

    Found out what was wrong. The reason I switched to Ultimate to begin with was to use this plugin called Code Bubbles (which required Ultimate). When I switched back to Professional after my trial expired, the plugin got into a strange state that was causing other parts of Visual Studio to fail. Once I fully uninstalled the plugin, search returned to normal.
