Filtering Directories

  • Article

Note

Indexing Service is no longer supported as of Windows XP and is unavailable for use as of Windows 8. Instead, use Windows Search for client side search and Microsoft Search Server Express for server side search.

 

By default, directories are not filtered and do not appear in query results. To filter directories, set the registry entry FilterDirectories to one. Filtering directories treats the system properties of the directories.
