I can't read the path to my files because it's too long, so trying to
remove some useless headers like type, size, etc. but there doesn't
appear to be a way to remove these from desktop search results.

All I can do is close the gap of the column.

Any ideas?

thanks.

In the Search results, go to View --> Choose Details and uncheck what you
don't want to see.

yep, expected to find something like that but no, there is no "choose
details" option under view.

Only this: toolbars, status bar, explorer bar, large icons, small
icons, preview pane, goto, and refresh.

Click one of the results to highlight, then press Ctrl/+ (That's Ctrl
key and Plus key.). You must use the + on the numeric keypad.

Folks, we're clear that I'm asking about the new Windows Desktop
Search Tool, right? With a result selected, pressing Ctrl/+ does
nothing.

I'm starting to think there's no way to customize the resultant
headers.

next problem was figuring out how to search for file with contents =
"something".

One thing after another with this ****ed thing, so I fixed it by
uninstalling and instead installed freeware FileLocator Pro. Much
better.
