    Search doesn't find files! At least in my Google Drive folder...


    Thanks for helping;

    I press Start
    I type
    hello
    Windows finds files containing 'hello'

    Problem:
    I press Start
    I type the filename of any files I know exist in my Google Drive folder (c:/users/Luke/Google Drive)
    nothing appears.

    It says "Windows is still indexing some files. This might not be everything just yet."

    Thing is, if I go to Indexing Options, it clearly says
    "Indexing complete."
    and there's no HDD activity (and it's had ages to rebuild the index)...

    ...oh and I rebuilt the index (~500,000 files).

    The best workaround I've found is switching off Indexing (which reveals files in Google Drive folder, but now searching the whole computer takes forever)

    Thanks for any ideas!

    Ah, and yes I checked Google Drive is included in the index!
