  • Question

  • Can no longer use File Explorer to search for photos. Error message says no such file when in fact there are one or multiple files using a keyword.

  • Not sure what version of windows you are using but this KB article regarding the Search service in Windows might help.

  • Hello,

    I'd ask in the Cortana and Search forum on Microsoft Community.

    As the Microsoft Community is on a different platform, we cannot move the question for you.

    Once there, click on Participate near the top of the screen, and select 'Ask a Question' or 'Start a Discussion'

  • Hello,

    The Windows Desktop Perfmon and Diagnostic tools forum is to discuss performance monitor (perfmon), resource monitor (resmon), and task manager, focusing on HOW-TO, Errors/Problems, and usage scenarios.

    As the question is off topic here, I am moving it to the Where is the Forum... forum.
