Hello people,

i'm currently testing the search function of Windows Vista !

but it appear strange or buggy ? :-(

i explain:

i go on computer then on c:\ and there i tape in the Search Field

autoexec.bat
you can see that here -> http://www.numtek.com/te/vista_se_a.jpg

in this first step there something allready strange the autoexec.bat seem
hidden, but when we go on him properties is NOT !!

So i launch the Search and he find NOTHING !!!

i have do the same search but with XP on that same drive (networked-shared)
and XP find it ;-)

So what happen ?

Thx a lot people.....
 
There are a few troubles with the Search function - try the public beta (see
the windows.vista.general newsgroup) and see if this fixes anything.

The root of my drive isn't set for indexing either, just the default users
and their subdirectories, but a search via the search box on the root of my
C drive does find for example 'bootsect.bak' when I search for 'boot'.

Explorer uses a combination of the search index and regular file enumeration
searches in this case.

Cheers
