ReIndex for GDS

• ReIndex for Google Desktop Search: command-line形式，可以放在排程，變成自動更新索引

• Google Desktop Search Plug-ins: TweakGDS: 手動/自動 更新索引，須先安裝 .NET Framework。

ex1: C:\tweakgds\TweakGDS.exe "C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\My Documents"
只針對[我的文件]更新索引

ex2: C:\tweakgds\TweakGDS.exe /complete "C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\My Documents"
只針對[我的文件]更新索引，並刪除cache

• 不用裝程式的方法: reinstall GDS

GDS as service

即 C:\Program Files\Google\Google Desktop Search\GoogleDesktop.exe /startup
