Windows 7 Index Recherche ne fonctionne pas in Google Drive dossier

ayi

J'ai récemment installed Google Drive on my Windows 7 laptop and began syncing all my files a few days ago. All waussi until I needed to search for some documents in my local copy of Google Drive using Windows 7 Search feature.

Windows did not return any results at all. Weirdly, when I turned off Windows indexing for that folder, it began returning results.

Cela ne me dérange pas using windows search w/o the index but sometimes it takes too long to search (especially for keywords inside documents like Word and Excel). It's driving me nuts to the point where J'ai given up on Windows Search and switched to Google Drive's online search to look for files (not as convenient as I still have to go back go google drive in Windows to locate the folder). Toute aide appreciated!

OK, I j'espère que cela aide for people who are having problems with Windows 7 Search in Google Drive folder. After a few days of playing around, finally got windows search to work and best of all, search inside files(e.g. word, excel) works too!

assurez-vous security permissions for 3 users (specifically the SYSTEM group) are given FULL access to Google Folder. Je ne suis pas sûr why my folder only gave my compte utilisateur access. I realized this only after checking the other folders where index search was working.
Indexing is enabled for content. When Google Drive synced my files, it apparently did not set this attribute. The funny thing is that the folders were set but not the individual files inside. Je ne suis pas sûr who to blame for this. So what I did was allez dans the Google drive folder properties, clicked on Advanced button, then unchecked "Allow files in this folder to have contents indexed in addition to file properties". After clicking all the OKs and confirming to do this to all folders and sub folders, go back to properties and enable the "Allow files in this folder..." so that it will propagate to all files inside.

Now Windows search is working for both normal file search and content searching. Je ne suis pas sûr if this affects Google Drive in any way. But si vous êtes reading this Google, please fix this in your app (unless this was done intentionally to force users to user Google Drive's online search 😛).
