Index files-what happens?
When doing a search in a folder, a little note (Suggestion) always appears at the top that says “Searches might be slow in non-indexed locations etc.” and suggests that I index them “click to add index”.
I might want to do this but I have my files organized so that I know where they are and can find them. They are mostly in an external drive.
If I index them, is it going to scatter them all over the place and put them in new locations so that I will no longer know where to look for them? In other words, how drastic is this indexing going to be? I don’t want to have to do a System Restore so that I know where things are again.
