business content for which indexing was important for me. However I cannot
add these folders to the indexed locations since whenever I open Indexing
Options in Control Panel and click Modify and Show all locations, these
folders are just not showing up under the node of my C: drive.
Simply to put I cannot get Vista index my C:\Work folder since there's no
Work folder displayed under my hard drive's node. The folder was created by
the same account that is used to try to get it indexed and is not a shared
folder.
The problem occurs with every folder I have created in C:, only the folders
created by Vista and by the hardware vendor are shown.
How to remedy this very bad problem, guys?
Cheers,
Gus
Hi Gus,
You might try disabling the Search Index and let Vista default to using the full non-indexed search instead. This tutorial will show you how.
