How is Win8's search any worse? Press Win, type the program you want, press Enter to run it. It looks different, yeah, but functionally it's the same.

- icelancer 13y agoThat's the point. It's not any better. Everyone saying the Win-Search thing works just fine in Win8 is missing the boat: It ALREADY works fine in Win7 while MetroUI is infinitely worse.
- daigoba66 13y agoIn Win8 (prior to 8.1) there wasn't a unified search. I run a lot of programs that aren't "installed", but are just executables in an indexed directory (like small utilities, or putty, etc). These do not show up by "just typing". And in 8.1, "everything" isn't really "everything". It doesn't search within my e-mails, or other programs that used to integrate with the Windows search indexer. It's basically garbage compared to Vista and 7.
