In windows 7 operating system search engine is not so good, you will not find search option easily whereas in windows xp we can easily find the search option and can view our file. Windows vista also have same problem. The search option you see on the start button is not the real search option for a file you have to go in Organize -> Folder and search options -> view your file. You can type your file name with extension and can get your file.

The search option in windows 7 and windows vista are different from xp. You can easily search and find your file in xp and it is good. In windows 7 the search option is not so good as xp. First of all you’ll not find the actual search option easily. Normally in xp you can find search on the start button, but in windows 7, you have to go in Organize -> Folder and search options and then type your file name which you want to search. Try this hope it work for you.
