Is there a way to get Win 7 search to show what I ask i

In xp when I searched it listed what I asked it for. This is not so with Vista & now 7.
Example: I would use the ` Symbol, (lower case & the character to the left of 1) to mark my Favorites & in xp it brought up only the names with the ` in it like, Mike at the Beach` In Vista & now 7it brings up nothing.

Hi and welcome

What folders do you have marked for indexing? are the files with '`' symbol in those folders?

I’m going to have to learn how to Index, thanks for pointing me in the right direction

I still can’t figure out win 7’s search. I have better luck with Agent Ransack that I learned about when I was trying to figure out how to search in Vista.
I just did a search in my picture folder for Boat & Agent Ransack found 98 files & win 7 found 83. Win 7 didn’t find sailboat & a few others that didn’t have a space between the two words like FireBoat, Fire Boat.

Control Panel>Indexing Options. Select the Modify button to add locations to Search.

I see now that win 7 just doesn't work like xp, Agent Ransack does so I'll use it most of the time. The only problem with Agent Ransack is that it doesn't let me rename the file

I use these everyday!
