I have over 8GB in my "Code Library" that I maintain on a 64GB "ScanDisk Ultra Backup USB Device".

Windows Search 4.0 (installed on Windows XP) can index removable drives, but Windows 7 (which uses Windows Search 4.0) cannot because the USB device identifies itself as a "Removable" drive and Windows 7 refuses to index removable drives.

How can I modify Windows 7 Search to index removable drives?

All suggestions welcome and greatly appreciated.

You can do this by mounting the drive as an NTFS folder rather than by drive letter. This would let you add it as a library.
