Hi
I have been having problems with Windows Search, it finds files that are not there, and won't find some files that are.
This relates mostly to a program that was uninstalled and then reinstalled in a new location on my D:\ drive.
It has a lot of texture files etc. that go with the program but were not part of the install, that were moved from the original location to the new one by copying and pasting them then the original location was deleted.
When I run Windows search it still shows them in the original place not where they are now. The original folder no longer exists but still comes up in a search.
When I use Locate32 it just plain doesn't see the files.
Is there a way to force Windows to go through the drive and re index it?
If not I may move the entire folder off to my external drive then reinstall again and move them back in again.
