searching inside archives with widows search service

[roise_r]

hello. How can choose inside which archives should the windows search service search?
Right now, whenever I run a search for anything, the search will look into archives as well, like .rar, .zip, .tib(acronis image). i would like to make the search service stop the searches inside the .tib extensions, cause that is making my search time double every time :-/
thanks

The only way to do it is to disassociate TIB files.

Start > Run > REGEDIT > Ok.

Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Classes. Find .tib and delete it.

If you want to open TIB files with Acronis after this, you will be prompted for which program to use. Just make sure that you do not select "Always use the selected program..." or that key will be re-created and Explorer will start searching them again.

wow, thanks ... that did the trick really well and fast! total of six-clicks + del button and Enter

P.S. Appears that i still have a problem, with the Indexing Service this time: After i make a catalog and include directories in it... after the service is done indexing stuff, it searches really fast, but doesn't search for directories ?!!! :-/
example: search for "pictures" in 'My Documents'. Result: Only files that include the word "pictures" would appear. Folders - NO!
When the indexing service is OFF, i dont have such a problem...
Example: when i search for "pictures" inside 'My Documents', "My Pictures" folder would appear as one of the results! I tried to read about it in the help or search the NET, nothing on the subject... ?! any ideas?

I don't use Indexing - it slows the PC too much.
