Why has the basic search function on external drives stopped working for one particular drive?
OK this is really weird, but it turns out that the cause was the one-character name of the disk...
It was named &quot;Q&quot;, but when i renamed it to &quot;Q backup&quot; it was suddenly searchable again.
Does not matter wich letter, or even a digit, as soon as I only use one character the disk becomes no longer searchable.
When I give its name 2 or more characters - voilà, searchable again.
