If Windows Search can’t find files that you know are there somewhere, then you have the option to rebuild its index. Here’s how:
- Click on Start.
- Type index.
- Click on Indexing Options.
- On the Control Panel entry that opens, go to Advanced > Rebuild.
- Try searching again, once the index has been recreated.
