Is Windows indexing service enabled? Have you manually run an index scan since copying the folder over?

To see the services press Winkey r, then type
services.msc
and hit Enter

scroll down and put the cursor on
Windows Search

it should show if it is enabled or disabled
also on top left of the Window if it says Start
then it is not running. Click Start to get it going.
