Update to Vista Search

July 23, 2008

TechWhack reported that Windows Search 4.0 will be released through Windows auto update mechanism. You can read the original article here. To be upfront, I had lost track of the “internal search” version number in XP and Vista. I have an even tougher time figuring out search in Outlook Express, Outlook, SharePoint, Dynamics CRM and its X++ language, SQL Server, and Microsoft’s search acquisitions. My inability to keep Microsoft search systems clear in my mind is reflective of my age and my addled goose status here in rural Kentucky.

TechWhack reported: “This new version gives more control to enterprise IT administrators over users’ access to and use of search.”

What will thrill my chief technical officer is that “this new edition would require complete re-indexing of all the data on the computer. The good news is that the reindexing will suck up fewer resources.
