Indexing starts from strach on each startup
Hi,
The issue started earlier today. I turned on my laptop, tried to search for a file, but couldn't find it. So after hours of reading forums, I figured out how to index all the files on my computer and did it. I thought it was going to work, because after the indexing process all my files were accessible from windows search, just like they used to be. (i've been using this laptop for 2 years).
So I decided to restart, just to check, but when the computer turned on again, I had the same problem! I couldn't find my files in search, so I opened the indexing properties menu and saw that the whole process started again. It usually takes an hour or so, I've done this a few times.
I really don't know why it doesn't "save" the indexed files as it should. They should be accessible from search right on startup, but no, indexing stars again every time. A system restore wouldn't help I guess, nothing has changed on the system in the past couple of days. This is really annoying, I hope someone will be able to help me.
Thanks
