Vista indexing

[Antonio Acuña]

I have all of my drives selected for indexing yet very few results come up
in the search windows (taskbar, normal explorer window or adavance search)
My pc is on most of the time, a lot of that time in standby, it has been
months since I installed Vista, shouldn't most of the drives be indexed by
now? does the screensaver slows or stop indexing? there is no option to
stop indexing or indeed give it priority (unless I give the processs
priority) but I shoudn't have to, it should work, any ideas on why this is
happening, many files that have been there since installation still do not
show up in search results, and their drive and folder is included in the
indexing.

Hi Antonio,

You need to tell Indexing service what you want it to index on the
drives. See this link for details on how to add items.
