[WIN7] File explorer search not working on networked drives

I tried everything that I could find on the net to try and resolve this problem including the Microsoft "Fix It" program (which couldn't fix the issue. Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit Issue: searching in Windows File Explorer for files on mapped drives does not work, returning no results when I know there are at least one or more files that meet the criteria (In fact the animation that appears at the top during searches on the mapped drives doesn't appear at all) But if I go Start and type search terms in the box, the files are found. The mapped drives are based on a Synology 411j+ and if I directly access the file shares via Synology's own software, the files are found as well. Any ideas? I did try and force a rebuild of the search index, but its still underway at this point and given the size of the drives in question, may be going on for some time yet. NefCanuck
