Useless search functionality? What am I doing wrong?
Earlier today I was trying to access a file I need to use for homework (entitled "England's Foreign Policy 1515-1525"). So, rather than navigate through various files and folders, I decided to run a quick search on the start menu. However, to my surprise, any number of combinations (the full title, or just searching for "England"/"foreign"/"policy" etc.) turned up absolutely nothing. So I went into the folder where the file is located, so I could actually see it onscreen, and tried searching its name in the search bar at the top right - guess what, up pops the "No items match your search" text.
I really like Windows 7, it's running great in general for me, but can anyone tell me how to fix this issue? Search function is pretty useless if it doesn't work...
