  1. How to search by tags in Windows 11


    In file explorer, how do you search by tags as whenever I look up a tutorial it just shows me how to do it in Windows 10. When I click on search options, the option that I need to click on is missing. I want to search more than one tag at a time to get the most specific results.

    :)

  2. need to search for TAGS

    Hello
    Have created name tags in image files, want to find an easy way to search for individual tags.

    i read this

    Using Tags to Search in Windows 10 File Explorer

    • Open the File Explorer by pressing “Win + E” keys.
    • Click on the search box and then go to the “Search Tools” in the menu bar.
    • Select “Other properties” to expand the options.
    • Click “Tags” to allow Windows to reference tags when looking for the file.

    But I just cant find search tools...Also there's meant to be an option of a drop down list of tags to select

    I am certain the answer is simple, but its eluding me, Thanks

    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
