You should note that if not using Indexing service on *.html files or *.mht
(html archives) or (files that do not have Known extension) and searching
for content in the files, there is a "big" chance You will not
find "All" of the sources You know that exists on given search
point. You should click to use Indexing service + edit the Indexing service
settings - adding drives/folders/whatever You use to Indexing service setup
so It can be Indexed and processed.

So, You will Not find All of the given search content if You are Not using
Indexing service and not doing setup on the given search points! (!!!) -
ciadv.msc

+ Indexing service is very fast giving you like 9000+ search returns in a
metter of One (1) second over normal search that needs like 10  minutes for
more then half less! - Tested - but from eye.

You can do basic tests to see if Indexing service is running, cheking,
uncheking it from "GUI" search. Adding new/more
*.html/*.mht/*.whatever files to "some" folders on your computer,
then trying to get content from
'em, etc., there is stuff to check more.

Indexing service rules my everyday!

This Post intendent to everybody.

Enjoy, goto eat come nice choko from Sweden :)
