"Partial matches" is, of course, checked, as it is by default, as is "Include subfolders". These are stock Win 7 machines. There are no AQS options I see to cause searching every file name in a directory.

If this is somehow working for someone else to search the file names of new files of new file types in a non-indexed directory when searching from above (a possibly indexed directory), let me know. IT sure doesn't do this for me.

I don't have W7 to test this, but you could try this.. I found googling about windows7 search being broken "Open the Search and Indexing troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click Troubleshooting. Click View all, and then click Search and Indexing. Depending on the severity of the problem, the Search and Indexing troubleshooter might need to restart the Windows Search service."
