View 3 Replies View RelatedWindows 7 Search - No Residual Files And Folders
Dec 18, 2011I have windows 7 starter running on my pc and when I search for files or folders that are sure present on my PC or want to search for remaining files or residual folders after uninstalling programs in windows 7, the search function in Windows 7 finds no remaining files or residual folders (in the case of uninstalled programs or folders and files that are sure present on my pc), even when I search in "computer"(via windows explorer).
This happens with both indexing enabled and disabled.i enabled all of the search options(Really I enabled all of the options that are possible). I really need this because after a while my hdd will be full of unneeded files and folders.i also tried ccleaner but without success. If necessary with a different search tool, but preferably in windows 7 itself. I think it has nothing to do with indexing but I am not sure of that.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSearch And Deleted Items Folders In Outlook 2010 Pst Files?
Oct 6, 2011Is is possible to either delete or hide the "search folders" and "deleted iems" folders that appear in each pst file created?
We use individual pst files to file our emails per current job. But the folders above take up a lot of visual space in the toolbaro it would be preffered to hide or delete them.
We do not use either to "file" emails so the compact now option in the data file managment dialog box does not really apply since I believe this is really a benefit when the file is archived.

Feb 18, 2012I began having an issue with my laptops ATI Radeon graphics driver not working properly. It is fixed now, but the other issues I was having at the same time was not being able to view indexed files through the "search programs and files" and "windows explorer search" box. The screen goes blank or does not produce any results. Also, one of my downloaded software disk programs will not open--error. This particular program, Logos Bible software, index its files quite often. Even when I am not using the program. I also cannot change my desktop background to any picture except solid colors. I think my laptop has a corrupted file somewhere, or it is infected with malware.

Jan 13, 2011I tried searching for files on a CD with a specific extension but nothing came up even though I can find some of the files manually it would be a pain to search every zip rar or cab file for a specific extension. Does windows 7 search compressed files or does it skip the contents? If it skps them does anyone have a recommendation for a search program that can search packed files or do I have to install XP to get a decent nonindexed search program back.

Jun 22, 2011I recently needed to find some files (MS Word which contained a specific word). From Windows Explorer, I selected the root of the directory in which I thought the files resided, entered the word I wanted to find in the Search box, and 16 files were found.
I then repeated the search using a stand-alone search tool and it found several hundred files.
I looked at the search options and they ARE configured to search the directory in question and MS Word documents. (Since some files were found, it seems reasonable to assume that the search options are configured properly.) It also reported that my system was fully indexed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWindows 7 Search Only System Files
Feb 7, 2011The initial Win7 install to now (about 9 mo), search worked fine and I love it, but I may have done something that broke it. Searches appear to only find stuff on C and then only system related stuff. None of my files/folders and nothing on any of my 3 drives. For example, it finds my Desktop folder but no contents. I went into the Indexing tool and enabled all drives and did a re-index with no improvement. I can't find any settings that control where it searches.
View 4 Replies View RelatedSearch Isn't Finding Some Existing Files
Feb 5, 2011I have a program called BigJig, which has jigsaw files (.jg6) and my saved completed/part-done jigsaws (.sv8) files. When I had XP I always saved the .sv8 to the same folder the .jg6 was in.. Then Vista started dumping them somewhere else, despite the fact that I would tell BigJig to save to the folder I wanted them in. I finally found them.. I think they were in some user profile in application data or something. Should have moved them then, but I didn't. Well, now that I've upgraded to 7, they re back to sving where I want them, but I cannot find the ones Vista dumped in the wrong place anywhere.. search does not find any of the files, neither the .jg6 nor the .sv8, even though they are there, I can see them inBigJig, open them, mess with them etc. But some of them are in the wrong folders, and so, because I can't find them, I can't move them to where I want them to be.. if that makes sense. BigJig doesn't have a 'save as' option, so I can't save them to the right place and delete the wrong one.. I need to move them in windows explorer or my computer, but until i can find them I can't fix their locations. How can I find the actual location of these files?

Nov 24, 2012I found several instances of csrss.exe running. Looked up this file, and find it to be a legit file name for a necessary service. All fine so far.So I decide to search my C: drive for this file, just to see if I have multiple copies, and possibly one might be bogus. I pull up an explorer window, type csrss into the search box, and it finds NOTHING...Now, I can go find one instance of csrss.exe: it's in the windows/system32 folder... and when I search ONLY this folder, it shows up in the search. But when I try to search the whole C: drive, it can't find it, anywhere.

Nov 25, 2009In WinXP, using the standard Windows search, I could search for a filename, and if it was found in a Zip file, that would be shown in the search results. In Win 7 (even after changing search options to search ZIP files) it usually does not find the filename in a Zip file. Occasionally it finds it in one Zip file, but I know it is in several and need to see all of them to find the one I want. I have indexed the drive being searched.
