My little doggie where is it?

In XP home in search up came a Doggie, is this search all files and folders still available in Win 7, it's not for me, it's for one of my kids, the doggie that is, honest.

Use XP mode and you can have your doggie back in that.

Ahhhh, this is great, I despise and hate the search system in Vista & Windows 7. It is about the only thing I miss the much about XP.

Much appreciated

You can use the doggie in XP-Mode, but I doubt it's gonna work for your files & folders in Windows 7. It could work, but with a workaround.

I don't think that's the thing they want, when they say "they want their doggie back".

What was "the doggie".
I've still got an XP system but never seen "The doggie".

I suppose we can all learn something every day.

Now I've found it -- on my Windows XP system (SP3) you have to click the "Click here to use search companion" - then you get the "doggie" back again.

Actually once you get used to it the Windows 7 search is far better, quicker and actually more intuitive to use as well.
