Windows Desktop Search returns no results

Not sure whether this is the right group...
Windows Desktop Search returns no results for ( for example) scanpst.exe.
The Search Companion returns the location almost instantly. WDS has been
installed for some months so indexing shouldn't be a problem. Why doesn't
WDS find files?

Thanks

I MAY have answered my own question - for some reason WDS does NOT index all
of the C: drive by default - very odd.......
