I noticed my search in right top of the explorer, doesn't start searching the libraries, or the folder in it. But when selecting the downloads folder from my "favorites", it does search the downloads folder... Any idea? Thanks!
Thanks, but I've disabled the search service, so it won't index. This doesn't seem to matter for most folders though. I don't want Windows constantly indexing things, I rather wait a little longer when searching. So I noticed, when I go to documents under the C:\Users\Username folder, it works flawlessly, like all other folders. When I create a shortcut to the favorites from the documents folder there, search also works in the favorites pane. When I create a shortcut to the favorites from the documents folder from the libraries, searching the documents folder under favorites all of a sudden doesn't work?? That's crap, oh well....guess I have to create the shortcuts from the original folders then
No.. just right click on Start and you'll see the documents folder .... you can RIGHT click on Start and under Properties /Start Menu /customize .. you can expand folders, add more folders.... lot of handy options.
You are wise to turn off indexing.. it's one of my top 4 speed tips in the link below.
