Windows 10, 8, and 7 use the Index for faster search results. You can narrow down the search criteria, but most geeks like to disable Indexing for better performance. Because Windows isn't always updating the search index, your computer can run faster, except when you search.

You can search for Indexing and click on Indexing Options to modify your Indexing Options.

You can make the changes using our registry files, editing the registry, or Group Policy Editor.
