Hello,

I've just installed Windows Desktop Search on an XP machine. It's nice to
get everything indexed to have instant search result.

As I know often where my files are put under which directory, but just don't
know which file exactly, it would be nice if I can apply directory filter to
the search result. How can I do that?

I suggest you post to a WDS forum.

That would be a lot easier if that forum was available as a newsgroup.

For people who still prefer NNTP to search and post questions (a good
newsreader offers a far better, more personally customizable and especially
FASTER interface), the only choice seems to be microsoft.public.msn.search.

Except if they're French: the French did get a desktop search newsgroup, so
how come the rest of us didn't?
