Interaction with Windows Indexing

  I use SyncToy a lot and love it. Each morning and evening I synch home computer to my laptop. I create and modify files on both computers more or less equally.

   

  Last year, after moving to Vista, I found that Windows indexing was not reliable some files were indexed, some weren't.

   

  So I moved to Copernic. Same problem.

   

  Eventually I discovered that the only way I could reliably search was to use a fast search utility such as FileLocatorPro.

   

  I was disappointed with the situation but didn't think much about why Vista search and Copernic didn't work properly.

   

  I recently installed Vista on a new machine and decided I'd work with Windows indexing again. It was the holidays and everything worked fine.

   

  As soon as I started work again the problem has recurred and I've just realised why; files which are created on one machine and which are transferred by SyncToy are not indexed on the other machine unless I reindex - which is not an option for a file set of about 40,000 files.

   

  (I should mention that on each machine Windows Indexing states "Indexing Complete")

   

  As it has happened on three different Vista installations I suspect that this is a real issue.

   

  So my questions are:

   

  * is there are way around this issue on version 1.4, which I am using?

   

  *has the issue been fixed in 2.0?

   

  Thanks for your comments
