Vista search does not display path to items listed in results

12-02-2007

I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium.

Is it possible to add a column to search results that displays the full path
to the found items?

It is tedious and time-consuming to have to right-click on each item to
access its properties.

Yes.

Right click on the top of the column bar and select More from the context
menu. Scroll down to the 'Path' item and select it. This will enable the
path column.

But can you make it do this by default, or only by hand for each and every
new search?
