Guest buddyram Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Each time I enter a word or phrase to find in the start menu bar, i see those words are searched on in C(Windows) drive, More often i will find for the files in the e drive(my personal drive), but unfortunately the search is confined to only C drive. May i get any solution for this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Krause Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 HI Buddy and welcome to groovyPost. What you need to do is adjust the locations Windows 7 is pointed to index. To do this follow these steps: 1 - Click Start Menu and Type Index. Click Indexing Options when it appears under the search Results. 2 - Click Modify Button (On the Indexing Options Menu/Tool) After clicking the Modify Button in option 2, Windows 7 will scan your system for all the drives connected. On my system it showed all my drives and external USB and eSata drives. Hopefully your E drive will appear. 3 - Click the box for your E drive 4 - Click OK Now after letting the system run for a few hours it should index all the files on that drive and you should be golden!
