How to program the search indexer to run when it is convenient for ME rather than on the computer

Is it possible to put the search indexer to run only at certain times of the day when I'm NOT at the computer and the constant grinding of my HDD does not bother me? It also tends to cause a lot of heat and make my computer fans to kick in "high speed" which is really noisy.
He plunges me nuts, because it seems to kick when I'm in the middle of an intense operation of the drive, and that slows things down.

I can't find it in the scheduled tasks, and only function in time of inactivity is obviously broken. If I can't plan sound at times, can I set it so I have to manually trigger?

Otherwise, just benefits are not worth the aggravation. I always check the Task Manager and resource monitor to see why my hard drive is grinding suddenly like crazy and my disk performance or my system just slowed down, just to see that runnning svchosts or searchprotocolhost.exe or searchindexer.

Yes, you can. I find also quite annoying as well as I use my PC as a media extender, and the impacts of the playback quality when it is used.

Create two files of orders (startindexer.bat and stopindexer.bat)

In stopindexer, type the line

net stop wsearch

In the startindexer enter the line

net start wsearch

Now create 2 scheduled tasks to run the first batch file that stops the service every day at some point. The other for the throw upward at a time you do not use the computer. Point to note. You can run tasks scheduled under the system account otherwise you probably will not have rights to stop and start the service.

It works very well.

    Assalamou Aleikom Khader,

    If you read the manuals provided by Ajmal, you would see that to enter a request, you must install the Vision Acquisition accompanied by your capture card software.

    You can capture images using either NI LABVIEW, NI LabWindows/CVI or Visual Studio.NET via IMAQdx APIs provided with image acquisition.

    If you want to image processing, you can consider using murin Module NI Vision at the same time in the previous language that you choose. You can also find in the link posted a vision resources kit which is a good start in the development of machine vision applications.
