What is the currently best Desktop Search software?
Armando:
Very good news... I was quite surprised that WDS was so unreliable.
What about Spinbitz (I love that title...) ? :P
Darwin:
That doesn't seem right. Turning that option on tells WDS to conduct full-text search for non-indexed files. If a document's content is found only when the option is on, IOW, it's not indexed.

I agree - as I said, counter-intuitive, but it worked...
Darwin:
Following from my previous two posts... I *did* reset WS 4.0 by disabling it, rebooting, reenabling it, and then reindexing last night. It is certainly within the realm of possibility that it took this long for indexing to complete (rather than changing the setting that I referred to earlier)...
mwang:
By any chance the "Allow files in this folder to have contents indexed in addition to file properties" option is unchecked (disabled) for your Documents folder, Darwin?

Yes, it is. However, I haven't changed that setting in ages (that I can recall).
