How can I search in Windows 7 like I used to in Windows XP?
Hello Everybody,
I'm fairly new to Windows 7. I'm using it at work.
As part of my job I regularly need to search for files.
I have multiple drives mapped to my PC.
In XP I could tell Search to do something like start looking in C:\Grocers for a file named status.
Now it seems I can't control which or how many drives Search looks in.
I also don't want Search to look in my e-mail.
I also don't care about Libraries - I don't use them.
I just want to search from where I tell it to start searching and I want it to show me only
files and folders in the results.
I've tried different things and have run into cases where I know where a file is and the Search
doesn't find it. I don't care about indexed vs. non-indexed. If I say search a drive or drive\folder
I want it to search everyting from that point on down.
I'm hoping there's something I'm missing because this is driving me crazy.
Thank you,
Steve
