2.About search key
In our system,once the words are input and search button is pressed, those words will be analyzed by the system before using it in searching, which is called keyword parsing. by default, any file that contains one of the word in the result string will be displayed. however, if you use double quotation to enclose the words you input, the parsing process will be skipped. the words you input will work as search key, all the files containing the exact string you input will get hit. Thus, if you are using name of person or address, please remember to use double quotations to enclose it.

3. Search network disk
It is possible to search the network disk.in fact by providing the multiselect-folder- dialog, user can not only specify the folder in local drive but also network folder.

7. AND/OR/NOT Search
Grammatical conjunction (AND/OR/NOT) can be used in search string. they indicate that one or more of the cases it connects may occur. AND means that both of the words it connected are in the matched files while OR means that either of the words is in the matched files.

In option screen, user can define the hotkey to activate the search screen when system is working in trayicon mode. Anytime when user pressed the hotkey defined, main screen of the system will popup. This function works well except that Adobe Reader is running at protected mode.
To disable the protected mode of Adobe Reader, just follow the steps:
Reader X: [edit]menu->[Preferences]->[General] Tab, Deselect Enable Protected Mode at startup
Reader XI: [edit]menu->[Preferences]->[Security(Enhanced)], In the Sandbox Protections area, uncheck Enable Protected Mode at startup.

9. Install/Uninstall function
Install process is very simple, just unzip the downloaded file to some certain folder you have fully access right, on the other hand, running deletetool.exe in the folder will delete all the files unzipped and index data created.
We recommend you to create searchplus folder in root driver(like c:\searchplusplus or d:\searchplusplus and install the application there. Windows folder or program file folder are not recommended for they are managed by system often requiring special access rights.
