Solved Desktop search

[Blackstickman]

I've disabled indexing and tried quite a few desktop search programs. Right now I'm running a trial of Popusoft Instant Filefind. Which desktop search app if any do you use?

Vista's regular search is what I use.

Hi Blackstickman,

Yes, Advanced Search in Vista does a pretty good job of searching for files.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Thank you very much Brink. The advanced search techniques are very useful.

Swarfega, how do you move the index to another drive?
