In the "Search Options", "Advanced Options", have you put a tick in "Search System Folders" and "Search Hidden files and Folders". If these aren't ticked the search of Windows will be very fast and may appear as if it wasn't searched.
Ok that's nice, but is there a way to put these option by default? cause noe i have to check it every time i want to find something in the windows folder.
Copy and Paste the info between the lines into Notepad and save it onto your Desktop as:-
FindAll.reg
You must remove the word wrap on the second line
Then just double-click the file.
------------------Begin Copy and Paste---------------------------------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer]
"CaseSensitive"=dword:00000000
"IncludeSubFolders"=dword:00000001
"SearchHidden"=dword:00000001
"SearchSlowFiles"=dword:00000000
"SearchSystemDirs"=dword:00000001
-----------------End Copy and Paste-------------------------------------------
Now this one below will do the same but remove that annoying Search Assistant too:-
Copy and Paste the info between the lines into Notepad and save it onto your Desktop as:-
NoAssist.reg
You must remove the word wrap on line 4 and 6
Then just double-click the file.
------------------Begin Copy and Paste---------------------------------------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
This works great for the options inside "Advanced options" but i still have to check the "Advanced options" box. Is there a way to check it by default?
