As the title says, I am having issued with the indexing. It will index many e-mails, but get stuck at some number (currently, that number is 7,329) So i do "delete and rebuild index". the Indexing Options window freezes for a while, and then it unfreezes, with the status of "waiting to receive...

When I enter a search word in WE under LIBRARIES it just sits there. If I do it in the actual folder (My Documents) it searches immediately. At some point in the past it would search but never find anything, now it doesn't even search. W7 x64 or x86 Did I mention it works on someone else's W7...

By Terry Blount This is a round up of processes, services and features that I have turned off. I have tested these for months under Windows 7. My system is faster and stable and has far less overhead than the day I installed Windows 7. My boot time as recorded by BootRacer is down to 17...

Every now and then, you have these items which make you check the thermostat in hell. Today, we have a classic case: BusinessWeek is reporting that Apple and Microsoft are reportedly in talks about replacing Google with Bing as the default search engine on the iPhone. BusinessWeek gets its...

I have a strange issue I could not find online. When I type anything in the searchbox in "Start Menu", all I get is a strange empty icon which doesn't do anything. If for example I type in "CMD" it'll show an item called "Programs" If I type anything that would be found in a document, it shows...

I'm hoping someone can demystify my issue here. Scenario: - I have a file server running on Windows XP Pro we'll call it XPServer - I have two windows 7 Pro PC's, that we'll call 7Office and 7HTPC. It took me a bit to figure it out, but the windows 7 help file told me in order to call a shared...

Even after installing Adobes PDFiFilter64installer.zip and re-indexing PDF files are not properly indexed. Why has MS written OS's that have terrible search capabilities for over 10 years! I vote for Ubuntu! Shame on microcrap..... End of rant--------- In the meantime any one have any...

Look in the picture, I have a problem where no matter what i type in the search field nothing appears. It works for other user accounts but not mine. I have tried rebuilding the index, disable/then re-enable windows search and indexing services. I have also made sure in the start menu...

I'm talking about the start button (orb) search built into the start menu - it's HORRIBLE! :confused: I just installed 7 the other day, and I immediately noticed the search is severely lacking when compared to Vista. One major thing that seems to be missing is searching the control panel...

Documents that I saved remained in the Wordpad recent documents for a couple of days, then disappeared, then a search found no trace of the documents. Indexing is on for the whole drive. They are not in any folders that I can find. And a perhaps related problem - the Library had labeled both...

Win7 takes a giant leap backward-- you can't index network drives! XP's desktop search did this fine. Googling shows Vista had a patch to fix this-- but not Windows 7. I tried loading my networked music in Windows Media Center, which makes it show up in my Music Library, but it's still not...
