"HK" wrote in message . .. MS has released a new Windoze Desktop Search 4.0 preview for the current iterations of its operating systems. Very very very fast and slick, faster than any similar searcher I have seen. Searches file names and text within files, among other things. Free. Does it have the option of searching *all* files? After playing around with the Vista search app, I searched for files that I KNEW were there and Vista came back palms up. I then notice that you have the option of searching for files in *all* locations or some such stoopid thing. After clicking on that option, Vista found the file I knew was there. btw, it was slooooow as molasses. Why would I want to search for my car keys only in the bathroom????? Hell, they might be on the nightstand. This kind of thing is what really turns me off about Vista. That and GUI (that doesn't work) designed for people who don't understand computers. It just makes it that much more irritating for those of us who do grasp the concept of how a PC works. db~stupid little smiley face paper clips offering suggestions.....what is that? That and the "show all files" options.. Why on earth wouldn't I want to see my files???? OF COURSE I want to see all my files... Does it make it easier for the layperson to deal with less files???? There are ways to set it up to search everywhere on the computer. As for not showing all files, I can certainly understand why any computer administrator would want certain sorts of files to remain untouched by users. Didn't like "Clippy," eh? :} |
