How To Set Search For All Files In
Winxp:
When you perform a search for a file in Windows
XP. The default setting is for XP to ONLY return files in the "Search Results" pane -
when they are registered file types to a program on your PC.
In other words if you
are looking for a file that is NOT registered with an application on your PC, it will not be
found using the default search settings.
However, you can turn off the default by a
quick Tweak of the registry!
Open the Registry editor (type regedit from the Run
command) and navigate to:
HKEY LOCAL MACHINE\ SYSTEM\
CurrentControlSet\ Control\ContentIndex
Double-Click the value
named:
FilterFilesWithUnknownExtensions
..and change the value from 0 to
1
Exit the registry editor and reboot!
