    Remove email from Search results


    Anyone know how I can remove Thunderbird emails from Search results?

    Can't find a way to stop them from coming up.

    Many thanks

    I don't think you can , your only option is to disable it altogether.

    Ahhh pity..

    What do you mean disable... do you mean uninstall Thunderbird?

    You could try going to Control Panel/Indexing Options and selecting Modify, and see if you can unselect Thunderbird(if it's there or you can tree down to it).

    Thanks for the information - much appreciated.

    I can't find Thunderbird, will try to see if I can find where the folder is.

    You're welcome.
    It's the only thing I could think of that has to do with search on Windows, that might help, as I don't see an option for email under Cortana's "Notebook".

    Yes, I'll see if I can find an answer to this problem.

    BTW

    Do you know why I can't search for Word files in Win10.
    I have to put a full stop after a file name for it to be found.

    So file1 is not found but file1. is found.

    Is this because I'm using Office 2003?



    Thanks

    I don't really know
    Maybe someone else.
    Have you tried the Document icon in the search header?

    Hi, yes you are right.

    But its easier to put a .

    Such a waste of time when I have to work, I search for so many documents and in Win7 this is so quick and simple and easy.

    Is this problem the same with Office 2015?

    Its so annoying.

    thank you

    I really don't use Office that much(I just got it, I used to use LibreOffice).
    Let me ask one of the other members I know to take a look at this thread, maybe she can help.
    It might take a bit though(you know time zones:)).
