I am working on a HP-7100 mini tower running W7 Pro 64bits.

My Local HD includes C:/ + 2 disk partitions : all my documents are located on disk partition L:/ and all my media files are on disk partition M:/ The indexing process works well on C:/ and M:/ but does not index the L:/ any more also all of them are allowed to be indexed, also the system is present on all drive security tabs.

I have tested to rebuilt the indexing file with a new setting including few directories present on drive C/M/L but still with L: does not work !

One more thing I can tell you is that even after rebuilding the indexing file, I can find some residual directories or files which are out of the test selection. It is like unerased components remaining in the indexing database.

As I do not know precisely how the indexing process works it is hard to know what to do ...

Recently I had a bad time after using a past restoration procedure ... maybe it did corrupt the indexing file ???? If I start indexing the all L:/ disk partition the system stop at 39 found index also many more are existing ....

Does any one from you guys could advise the process to create a new indexing database ... ?

Any idea to get out of this mess ?

Many thanks for assistance Yvan
