Okay, looking into the Win7 indexing I see a couple things worth pointing out. First, they changed the name to Windows Search a few years back - it's no longer called indexing. Also, by default it only indexes a small portion of user files. Winkey>index will point to Indexing Options which allows you to add drives & folders.
Clearly someone at MS didn't get the memo that we were changing the name. :) On Sun, Nov 22, 2009 at 12:54 PM, mike <xha...@gmail.com> wrote: > I found a very quick app called Everything that indexes just the filenames > of your HD's.
