Adding document and arbitrary file results to Start Menu search
Hey guys,
I've been very heavily reliant on the program Everything lately and it's basically completely taken over as the way I navigate my computer. Being able to type in a random file name and have it instantly appear is a huge win for productivity.
But, I am wondering if there's any way to make Windows 7 behave in a similar manner. While I know I can run a standard Windows search, and Windows will let me search the Start Menu for installed applications if possible, is there a way that I can search using the Start Menu and find arbitrary files (namely documents) without needing to go into the more separate search function?
I figured that Everything exists largely to fill this niche but if there's some tweak out there that will let me accomplish something similar with Windows' built-in functionality, that would be awesome.
