Windows 10: Can't search for a specific tag in explorer, no matter what I try

https://i.imgur.com/Srtf3W7.png

As you can see my picture has two tags: "dog: brown" and "cat: pink". The thing is, I'm getting results when searching for "dog: pink" which I shouldn't get because that tag doesn't exist. Explorer is giving me back partial matches and no matter how I delimit the two words or what kind of brackets or quotes I use it refuses to work as one would expect.

How can I search for a specific tag like this without resorting to camel case tagging like dogBrown and catPink?

Clear the 'cache' in file explorer for already used picture tags?


If you set some tags for your *.jpg pictures, the windows 10 file explorer shows them in the "details pane" on the right side.





This list can get very long and with some wrong or no longer used entries.
How can I clear this list / cache / suggestions?

Or how can I stop the file explorer to suggests already used Tags?

 

Tags arent searching in File Explorer

Hi Alicia,

It seems that the Windows Indexing Options settings have changed after installing the recent update. To resolve the search result issue, we suggest rebuilding Indexing Options. To do so, please follow the steps provided by
Stephanie Sal's post on this

Feel free to post back with the result for further assistance.

 

Autocomplete Tags in Windows Explorer Incomplete?

Hi,

I'm currently reorganising several thousand photos, and use the 'tags' feature in Windows Explorer a lot. On my old laptop (Windows 8), I used the autocomplete / tag suggestions, in which previous tags are shown in a drop down list as I type - this saved
a lot of time for me. However, on this computer (Windows 10) it seems to be incomplete - some tags are showing up in the drop down list, but ones I know I've used are not showing up. The missing tags include ones I entered weeks ago, with many restarts since
then. The tags are still present on the files to which they were added and the files do correctly show up in search results when searching for those tags, but I still can't get the tags to show up in the suggestions. I've tried changing settings to allow the
contents of the folder to be indexed, but this hasn't made a difference. I've also tried rebuilding the search index, again this didn't help. I've searched online looking for a solution, but haven't found anyone with this problem.

What should I do in order to get the autocomplete tag suggestions to refresh or update to show the missing tags? Or is there a setting I should change?

Thank you
