| BUG: in Instant Search when you rename a file with [1] in its name I found a bug in Instant Search: when you have a file named like this "filename[1].doc" and you rename it to filename.doc, the Instant Search always displays the first name "filename[1].doc" in the start menu search results, although that file has been renamed to "filename.doc" a week ago (and so when you click on "filename[1].doc" the file is not found). |

It's because, in your Start Menu settings you have not disabled 'Search Recent Files'. ss. |

I think that just shows the last 10 or 15. This might be the address: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent But I can't be sure as as I have a fresh installation of Vista here, so I don't have any Recent Files. Try putting your old filename in the advanced search box and see what the location of it is. ss. |
