In my "Documents" library on Windows 7, one file is not showing up in Windows Explorer.
When I look in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\blah\blah
all 24 files appear. But when I look in Libraries > Documents > blah > blah
only 23 show up.
I made a copy of the file and the copy appears.
Refresh doesn't help.
The "Arrange by" setting defaults to "Name". When I change it to "Folder" the extra file appears, but changing it back to "Name" the file disappears again.
How can I make the file appear in all views? Why would it disappear?
EDIT: I deleted the Windows Search Index and things seem to be working again. I say it's a bug in the Search Service.
