I have three network drives (S:
, U:
and Z:
) mapped to a Synology NAS. They are all online and read/write accessible.
Without installing additional software or making the files available offline, how can I get Windows 10 to add the contents to the search index (without making the files available offline) so that searching them is fast?
Things I've tried
- "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties" is already checked for all three (source).
- Indexing Options doesn't have
S:
,U:
orZ:
listed. If I select "Modify" then I can only addC:
. Even if I select "Show all locations" then I'm still only shownC:
. - Deleting and rebuilding the index made no difference.
- Running the troubleshooter and selecting "Files, folders, apps or settings don't appear in results" just restarts the Windows Search app.
- Several other solutions that reference buttons, screens or options that only exist in previous versions of Windows
