    Completed Indexing later drops thousands of files, every week or 2


    In my Windows 10, the Indexing completes at about 50,000 files but then a week or two later, my Search stops finding some files. I look at Indexing Options and it says about 25,000 files are indexed. I Rebuild it and it again completes at that 50,000 and my searches successfully find the missing files.But sometime later, Indexing again drops to that 25,000 level or so. This crazy cycle happens every 1-2 weeks.

  3. Completed Indexing later drops thousands of files, every week or 2

    Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is Bernard a Windows fan like you. I'll be happy to help you out today.

    I understand the issue you have, nothing to worry I am here to help, this is actually happening when there are corrupted system files on the PC, in this case, I suggest doing an in-place upgrade wherein it will upgrade the device to the latest version and repair all issues without deleting any files.

    Note: before doing this make sure to create a restore point: https://support.microsoft.com/en-hk/help/402753...

    1. go to this link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    2. Select Download Now, and select Run. You need to be an administrator to run this tool.

    3. On the License terms page, if you accept the license terms, select Accept.

    4. On the What do you want to do? page, select Upgrade this PC now, and then select Next.

    5. After downloading and installing, it should fix the issue.

    Reference: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    Let me know how it goes and I hope that helps.

    Bernard

    Windows 10 - Understanding the Indexing information for Searching

    I looked in detail at the indexing options and changed several file types and started to rebuild the entire index again, now watching the process regularly over a week's period (I expect the indexing to take up to two weeks). Initially the number of files
    indexed continually rises, sometimes slowly, sometimes very quick (75,000 in an hour) - I assume based on the file type and whether file properties or file contents are being indexed.

    However, the constant increase stops at some point (around 365,000), I am assuming when it gets to 90% or so (it's not finished yet) and then the numbers start to jump around, a slow increase, then a drop of a few thousand without any logical explanation
    (i.e. alterations to files), then a faster increase and a small drop etc. Seems completely random. A sudden drop could be more that was indexed during a previous 12 hours of indexing. The total number currently indexed is about the same as 2½
    days ago but there has been quite a bit of variation in between.

    I suppose it will remain a mystery, and these numbers don't help in any way to estimate the time it will take.
