By default, directories such as the user's home folder and the start menu folders are indexed, but you can choose to index any folder on the hard drive. You can do this by right clicking on the folder you want to index, clicking properties then checking the index check box. Then click ok and let windows index The folder in the background, this shouldn't take long but it will take longer for folders containing more files
