    Find File in Documents and Settings

    I did a search for *.pst on all drives on my PC with the Advanced options Search System files and search hidden files selected.
    However, Windows wont find a file in my documents and settings directory.
    See image.
    Why is that?
    Is it possible to change this?

    Try doing a search on My Computer in stead. Maybe it looks at that folder as "viritualy" above C:, and not IN it...

    You need to turn on "Show Hidden Files and Folders" in the folder options too. The .pst file should be somewhere in the %USERPROFILE%\Application Data directory.
