Hello,
I just gave up figuring this out myself. I hope some of you are able to solve my problem.
I want Windows search to list my installed programs under 'apps', which is currently not the case.
I often come across software packages that are simple zip files and must be unzipped.
I've installed the sysinternalsSuite (a package that I really love) and Eclipse (java dev environment).
As a result I now have for example:
C:\Program Files\SysinternalsSuite\procexp.exe
OR
C:\Program Files\eclipse-jee-juno\eclipse.exe
I'd expect these programs to show up when I do a windows search... but that's not the case.
I can change the file indexing options to include the new folders (but do I need to do that for each newly installed program??) and I'll find the files under Files, but not under Apps.
Is it possible what I'm asking ?
Or what approach do you recommend ?
Thanks in advance for your answers !
