Let’s move onto AQS parameters you will find far more useful, starting with kinds of files. In fact, once everything is completely indexed you will find search results appear instantly so telling it where to search, unless you have a lot of stores (such as across a network), is kind of unnecessary. It seems far easier just to browse to the location you want to search. While we can see the value of this, it’s unlikely something you will use regularly, perhaps never. Microsoft has a list of possible queries you can use when searching stores. When you write a query with optional criteria, you use the following syntax: This can include one or two keywords, which can include a simple phrase such as “to be or not to be” or a file name “img2467.jpg.” You can also string together queries with Boolean and optional search operators including content, data stores where a file resides, the kind of file, and the properties of a file.
When you perform a search using AQS, you start with a search query. Syntax: How a Search Query is Constructed In this lesson, we’re going to cover the four AQS parameters we mentioned at the end of Lesson 4: stores, properties, kinds, and contents.

So now, here we are, at the end of our series and it’s time to finally dive in and learn all about Advanced Query Syntax, as we’ve been referring to throughout. These tools include Boolean and wildcards, both of which can help you narrow down your queries in just a few key presses. In fact, if you really want to extend your searching and build your prowess, Lesson 4 introduced you to even further tools you can use to refine your searches.
