where is the function of intuitive search of Win 7?

WHERE IS THE WIN7 INTUITIVE SEARCH FUNCTION?

Here is a classic example:

I have a lot of my docs saved on a memory stick 8 GB (a ton of files MS Pub, notepaddocs, PowerPoint presentations, etc.). I have them on the memory stick so that I regularly SEARCH on another computer with XP installed. Somewhere in this vast library I have information about a particular topic. I need to SEARCH THE CONTENTS OF ALL THE FILES on THE DISK, looking for a PARTICULAR STRING ASCII.

In XP, search is easy...
START / SEARCH /... .specify search criteria:
I enter in the "Word or phrase in the file".
and tell him where to look "look in:" drive G:\ [the mem stick] and BINGO...
It goes and finds, automatically search the ENTIRE DISK (the complete directory tree).

Now in windows 7, the search function has been removed from the start menu.
Well, where is he? What happened to the intuitive XP search function?
This is a powerful and important feature! Where at - it go?

(Please, explain not HOW TO search FOR FILE NAMES, OR "asdf" contained in the name of the FILE.
This isn't what I'm looking for. I want to search the CONTENTS of the file.)

function of HELP of Win7 is worthless in that regard. 7 has the ability, or not, and you know how, or not, but I hope that technical support has a right of reply.

Just open the drive, then type what you're looking for in the search field.  Windows search content for you, automatically.

If it was useful, you can vote by clicking on the green triangle. If it solves the problem, click on propose as answer. Thank you!

  • Where is the function of the number of Recipricated on the first HP?

    Hello

    I am trying to locate the 1 / x (number recipricated) function on the First HP - as I don't know if the terminology is correct for the unit, when you do a find in the PDF manual - it comes in white.

    (Note: as a test, I tried to do the same terminology search on the HP 50 G and it came in white too - although I can clearly see the function for this button)

    Someone help on this one, please?

    See you soon

  • where is the function AI_VRead() defined, which is used in the AIonePoint.c file. ?

    Hello

    I installed the Ni DAQ software for 6024E card. As I walked through the code examples in Visual C, I came across AIonePoint.c file where the AI_VRead() function has been used. But I could not find the function definition. I would like to know where is the AI_VRead() function body is present.

    Kind regards

    Rakesh

    Hi Rakesh,

    AI_VRead() is exported from % SystemRoot%\system32\nidaq32.dll. The corresponding import library is %ProgramFiles%\National Instruments\NI-DAQ\Lib\nidaq32.lib. The source code of this function is not available.

    nidaq32.dll is part of NOR-traditional DAQ. If you are developing a new application, using the API OR-DAQmx newer is recommended. Transition of NOR-DAQ traditional (old) using ANSI C OR-DAQmx and NI LabWindows/CVI , contains more details about this.

  • where is the function to stop smoking?

    At the opening of the Twitter links these links open in Firefox. To allow quick access back on that I used to be able to click left in the options menu. It would take me right back to Twitter. So the next time I opened a link it will open in Firefox. Without the button leave, a new link-opens, the browser stays right on the already open tab that does not open a new tab, or is the new link.

    I miss the option to quit smoking! where at - it go?

    I use the Android app.

    Thank you in advance for any suggestions you may have.

    3.6 x, I could go to the Bookmarks tab and open the "export bookmarks" and saves it to the top of my favorites to an external backup drive.

In the past, I have known accidents whereby I lost ALL my favorites. 3.6 x, I was able to save the bookmark file every day if I want but, with 9, I can't do it! Help!

  • I can't find a document by using the function of start/search/word or phrase

    Even if I know that on my PC, there are documents that contain words or phrases, I can't find them using the search in Start button. I don't know the exact names of these files, but I know that some of the words they contain. When I put a word or phrase in the appropriate box, the search results come up empty every time. I have Windows XP and MS Word 2007.

  • BlackBerry smartphones WHERE is the function of 'new' 4.5 HTML e-mail? !

    I've updated my AT & 8120 T with 4.5 via the download page RIM for AT & T devices. He installed and maintained very well. I read on the page of BB/RIM about 4.5 it is supposed to actually, FINALLY, have display html email now... Well, I'm here for you say... No... always the same view html not horrible to my incoming emails. I looked through all the options of e-mail and don't see anything turn on html either.

    Guess it's back to the use of Empower.

    WHERE is this promised novelty?

    PS - I love how all the other 'new' stuff like ID music and Streaming music costs $, when things like this were free on the iPhone forever now.

    That's where.   First, you will need to return your service books.  Secondly, in the messaging options, under e-mail settings you should now see "Enable HTML email" select Yes.

    What is already in your Inbox will always be like it was before, but with reference to your new service books email will be in HTML.  Only downside is that you need to go in the menu once you are in the email and select 'get the picture' or 'get images '.

    Hope this helps you.

  • Where is the 'Acrobat Windows Forum search' button?

    I gave much this Sin forumthis changed format (reason no individual, I can see the improvements, but it seemed just to take a little more time to review and do things), so maybe I'm being dense with my subject line?  The first thing I usually want when I enter a forum is looking for a topic that can answer my question already, but I don't see are Adobe search options in the world (no thanks) or all forums (no, I'm in the Acrobat forum because I have a question of Acrobat ).  Once I sent back a list that includes unnecessarily all the forums, I get a new search bar and a drop-down list of Adobe applications, so I can limit, but I already used my daily allowance of mouse clicks and lose interest. Did I miss something?

    There is no 'Acrobat Windows Forum search' button.

  • I'm wrong to close a tab (leaving FF just a tab closed) open -. Where is the function to "reopen closed tab"?

    I know I've seen this feature in the past two months. I just upgraded to FF4.
    To repeat: not, reopen the browser with all its old tabs, is to reopen a tab (among many others) which was closed by mistake.
    I looked everywhere I could think of. There should be a button "history" somewhere...

    To reopen a closed tab, press Ctrl-Shift-T, or go to "Recently closed tabs" in the history menu. (Press the "Firefox" button at the top left to access the menu of history.)
