Wow, would have never come close to guessing this one... Thank you.
If I were to associate them with another program like WinZip or WinRar,
would Search still keep from scanning Zips?
I take it that the line regsvr32 filename.dll associates *.zip and *.cab
files with Explorer so if another program ever stole the association I could
reinstate it?
Last question, is there a way to open a Search window from the command line,
as one can open an Explorer window? Basically, it's so I can make a batch
file for searches.
Thanks again for your help, Wesley.

[[Stop Search from Scanning ZIP files:
Un-register the zip and cab file dlls, then re-register them after that.
Before Search:
regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll
regsvr32 /u cabview.dll
After Search:
regsvr32 cabview.dll
regsvr32 zipfldr.dll ]]

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Hello,
I would like to know how to keep searches from looking inside
compressed files such as .cab, .zip, etc., since this would highly
reduce a filename search on one of my storage drives which is loaded
with compressed files. TIA,
Alphonse
