increase windows 10 indexing option search with D Drive

 https://superuser.com/questions/1429042/drive-not-listed-under-windows-10-indexing-options-and-so-not-selectable-for-in


  • Suspecting the drive was not being properly recognized as fixed, I checked the indexing locations again under Indexing Options, recalling that I kept seeing a folder displayed with a long ID string, and a tooltip informing me that that particular location was unavailable. I never assumed this to be a problem since I also have USB drives plugged in/out sometimes:

tooltip

  • PROBLEM FIX: to set the drive to be seen by windows as permanently fixed follow Microsoft's own guide here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3083627/internal-sata-drives-show-up-as-removeable-media

  • If for whatever reason the command mentioned in the MS guide doesn't work follow these steps below

    1. open Registry Editor in administrator mode
    2. browse registry folders to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\storahci\Parameters\Device
    3. add a new "Multi String Value" called "TreatAsInternalPort" and list the bus number for the drive in question:

new registry value

  1. it should look like this once you are done: Registry edited

  2. reboot and check Indexing Options again, you should now see your drive on the selection list.
