Find files and folders
 
If you hit the ALT button and click EDIT, you will see FIND on the drop down
menu.
This is a little different from the original.

Find files and folders
 
If you hit the ALT button you should see another bar just above the tool
bar, this has always worked in XP & Vista as well as in Windows 7.

If you use Everything Search instead you'll find your hard drive
doesn't run on all the time. Everything Search is free and only works
on NTFS partitions. It uses the file system journaling to get updates of
file system changes instead of API notifications that cause your drive
to be indexed yet again.

Way better.
Unless of course you are not running NTFS. :)
