Start (Orb) / type in the Start Search entry box.
If you want to locate specific text within an indexed location type the
phrase in commas. If a lot of results are returned just click on the
'Show All Results' and then you can filter by type (Docs, Music etc)
If what you're looking for isn't returned and you know for sure that it
should be, make sure the location where the file is stored is being indexed.
