Hello,
I have a problem with search & index. A few weeks ago I installed a new hard drive, but Windows doesn't index any of the files I keep in this hard drive, despite the location is included in the index list.
Any help?

Thank you,
Bea

Yep. Windows still thinks it's a floppy and won't index floppies.
