Refreshing the Explorer Search Index?

[imacken]

How can I refresh the search index in Windows Explorer?
For example I put files in Documents a couple of hours ago, that just don't show up when I type part of the name in 'search'. The files do show up however in the Start button search!

Thanks a lot - that worked. I didn't even realise that there was an indexing section in CP!
