Re: OT question - Copernic Desktop Search

I suspect this is some setting not right somewhere. My XP Search does find
the files by text within. There's an option with a black triangle next to
it that says: "More advanced options." Click on that and see if everything
is set correctly. Also, make sure that "When was it modified?" and "What
size is it?" are both set correctly (probably to "Don't remember").
