I had no problem finding it in Windows 7 x64 or x86 with search. It is in (x64) C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\ in (x86) C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\I really like Windows 7. I suggest you stay with what ever you had before you had the chance to use Windows 7 for free.

Hi Comic,I told you that all depends from your settings. Either you've disabled indexing, or you've excluded some (system) folders from search. If you did that, don't complain the results. Easy to check: Enter your filename into the search button (might require quotation marks, f.e. to search for *.iso files you should enter "*.iso", not *.iso), click on "see more results", click on "computer" -> your win7 disk/partition, let it search and it will be found. To do the same without so much clickyticlick, you must customize your search options. That's possible on this crappy system, believe me.Mobile AMD64 3000+, VIA Apollo K8T800 chipset, 1 G RAM, ATIRadeonMobility 9700, 20x DVDRW, C:XPSP3 (55G),D:WIN7 (25G),F:DATA (250G)

i was a big MS fan until Windows XP /Server 2003 and office 2003. i was.latest annoyance: 'windows search'i used desktop search under xp and it worked great. now i am really shocked that 'windows search' under win7 does not show a great number of files. everything included under 'indexing options', index fully built, service runningno error message, no errors/warnings in event viewer.
