Did you search on 'All files and Folders' in your Local Hard Drives? Anna |

click on My Documents. Look in that for the photo, did you name it? If you did 'name' it, go to 'Start', 'Search' 'files & folders' and type in the name and it should find it. Failing that look in, My Photo's, or Shared Documents, anything, as it has to be in one folder or another. Hope you find it Kim |

You say you have only just scanned it so you know when it was. Follow Kims advice but instead of entering a file name go to the date modified section and type in the dates. The results will show every file made or changed during that period so check all possible from that list Beth :) |

Try scanning in another photo as the one you have lost may be hidden in a folder within you scanning software package. When you have scanned in your new photo it should take you to an album of all the scanned files you have created. Search for it there. It will not move from there unles you give it a specific address (a location with a folder). Victor |

When you go to Search , Cloick on 'All files and Folders' DONT enter a name in either of the boxes but just go straight to SEARCH and click. You will get EVERY(and I mean that) file on your disc. I've found missing items that way!! Jane |
