Disk not detected during indexing
Solved
-
Hello,
I installed a new SSD, which is correctly detected by the Windows Explorer and has files on it:
However, it hasn't been automatically added to the index. When I try to do it, it can't find it, despite having clicked on the "show all locations" button (which, by the way, didn't show anything more):
Does anyone have an idea on how I can add this new drive to the index?
Thank you in advance for your help.

@ameu00Hello,
Among the various solutions proposed, we find:
- Check the activation of indexing for the concerned disk: right-click on it in File Explorer, properties, allow indexing.
- You can also go through Settings, Update & Security, Troubleshoot where there is a dedicated option.
- In indexing options, advanced, rebuild the index
- It is suggested, which probably amounts to the same thing, to delete the folder C:\Windows\System32\Config\TxR if it exists and recreate it identically (permissions given to SYSTEM) and then restart the PC. -
@brucineI rebuilt my index (about 15 minutes) and the disk appeared in the indexable spaces of the manager. I then simply checked the box like for any space to index.
Moreover, indexing was indeed active, and the troubleshooting utility found nothing.
Thank you for your help! This topic is resolved thanks to you.
