The "Content" setting returns the path in the first column, the only problem is that it truncates it because there isn't enough room in the column. I cannot find a setting to remove any columns or change their sizes; is there any way to modify them? thanks....

I have Win 7 that I installed prior to Win 8 and of course both report they are installed on "C" drive when booted. When I boot in Win 7, Win 8 is showing on "D" drive. When I boot in Win 8, Win 7 is showing on "E" drive.

Here is the bug: When I am booted into Win 8 and do a search on "C" (Win 8's drive) it returns the correct information. When I do a search on "E" (Win 7's drive) it reports the files on "C" and "E". The files that are on "C" are prefixed as being on "E".

Anyone know of a resolve for this one??????? thanks....



More info: Here are the 2 folders returned by Explorer:

C:\Users\rdwray\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\8e79smr3.default\Chrome
E:\Users\rdwray\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\8e79smr3.default\Chrome

If I delete a file in "E:\Users\rdwray\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\8e79smr3.default\Chrome" the same file is deleted in "C:\Users\rdwray\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\8e79smr3.default\Chrome"

OUCH!!!!!
