Effectively improve the efficiency of Vista search efficiency three

  
        I believe that many of my friends have already used Windows Vista. Its search function is extremely powerful. In addition to searching directly in the search box of the start menu, if you press the “win+F” key combination to open the search browser and switch to Advanced search mode, you can manually specify the search location, date, size, name, tag, author and other conditions, so that you can locate the search target in a shorter time. In fact, we can further improve the search efficiency of Windows Vista. Here is an example of Vista SP2: Tip 1: Quickly update search results In actual work, we may often need to search for files in different formats under a fixed path, but If you reset the search criteria every time, it is quite troublesome. In fact, we can create multiple different search result files, and then directly double-click to update the search results: For example, after completing the search for the file format of “ldquo..zip”, click the “Save Search” button on the toolbar. At this time, the “Save As” dialog box will pop up. The file name and save path can be specified by itself. As for the save type, there is no need to change it. After saving, we can get a file with the extension “search-ms”, double click directly. This file will get the latest search results, and the efficiency is naturally much higher than the re-search. If you want to change the search format, you can open the search results file with Notepad and find “operator="contains" value=".zip"”, change the “.zip” to “.rar”, Exit after the save takes effect. In the future, you only need to double-click on the search result file, name.zip.search-ms”, you can find that the search result content has changed. Tip 2: Searching for files in both formats at the same time As long as you modify the search results file, you can search for files of both formats at the same time: For example, you need to search for .pdf or .jpg files in two different formats, still first in “ Name & rdquo; box input “.pdf .jpg”, please note that the space is separated by a space in English, click the "Save Search" button on the toolbar, and you will get the corresponding XML file after confirmation. Open this search result file with Notepad, press “Ctrl+H” to open the replacement dialog box, replace “&Conquoition” with “OrCondition”, and save the changes and exit. Two hundred and five blogs (http://www.im250.com.cn) remind you to double-click this modified search result file, as shown in Figure 1, you can see that the search results already contain two different formats of files, if needed Search for other formats and change them in the same way. Tip 3: Enable natural language We know that Google and Baidu provide the search function of “&” or “,” you can use more than two keywords to search at the same time. In fact, Windows Vista also has such a function, but it is set by default. Disabled only. Open the “Folder Options” dialog box, switch to the “Search & rdquo; tab, find the “Search Method” section, check the “Use Natural Language Selection” checkbox here, other options can be Set according to the actual situation. When you need to search for files in multiple formats in the future, you can directly enter “.pdf or .jpg”, where “or” indicates the connector "or" or "," you can see the effect shown in Figure 2 immediately after execution. . It should be emphasized that we can use such natural language search in various places such as the search box in the upper right corner of the window, the search browser, and the “Start Search” box in the start menu.
