I’ve been experimenting with three different computers, each one with a different setup, just in case: one set up with only a local account one connected to a personal Microsoft account and one joined to an Azure AD domain. Searches on my computer don’t bring up anything helpful from OneDrive.Ī few weeks ago I moved all my files into OneDrive for Business. This change will help integrate your OneDrive content online with the traditional indexed results.”
“We’re updating the search box in File Explorer to now be powered by Windows Search. The official description of Windows 10 version 1909 (November 2019) says: That’s why it was exciting for search junkies when Microsoft announced that Windows Search would integrate search results from OneDrive right in File Explorer. It’s not a bad experience but it’s not what you’re used to. If you go to the website, you can do full-text searches and see thumbnails and previews. If you had files stored online that are not synced to the hard drive (which is now the OneDrive default), then you could do a search for a file by name in File Explorer, but you could not do a full text search – a search for words contained in the file. Until this year, Windows Search could only search files on the hard drive. It only takes a few checkmarks to redirect your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders to OneDrive, giving you a backup and extra flexibility in an invisible, seamless way.
Your OneDrive storage space can be linked either to a personal or business Microsoft account, and the Microsoft subscriptions for the Office programs include 1Tb of OneDrive space. The files can be browsed in File Explorer, so you don’t have to learn anything new, but your files are safe if your computer dies, and you can get to them from other devices. One of the most significant changes in modern computing is well under way: we are storing files online with OneDrive, Dropbox, and Box, rather than storing them on our local hard drive.
