Using Information In The Enterprise
Information workers (IWs) routinely look for informationSearch performed within a task or goalTargets a known, familiar set of sourcesData is increasingly becoming distributed on the network
An intuitive reliable way to organize, browse and search for data is neededGoal of finding data is not of finding, but using it
Browsing or Searching for DataTwo ways to look for an answerBrowse: navigate to the data Search: rely on a search engine
Finding often requires browsing of search results
How Does Windows 7 HelpFeature UseWindows Explorer Browse your informationLibraries Organize your informationWindows Search Find information on your local computer and
other Windows computersFederated Search Find information on remote repositories
Enterprise Search Scopes Quickly rescope searches to corporate approved repositories
Windows ExplorerBrowse your information

Group Policy for Windows Explorer
Disable Known FoldersRecreation of known folders by applications may lead to user confusion after manual deletion of these folders. This policy should be enabled if you want to minimize user confusion around known folders being recreated by applications.
Remove the Search the Internet “Search again” buttonBlock access to Internet search from Windows Explorer. This is especially useful in company environments with limited or restricted Internet access, or where sensitive data should not be accidentally routed to Internet search engines.
Turn off the display of snippets in Content viewDisable showing snippets of file contents by default when a search is returned. This helps users avoid displaying sensitive data accidentally through Windows Explorer searches while in a non-secure environment.
Turn off numerical sorting in Windows ExplorerThis policy should be enabled if the logical filename sorting that was present in previous versions of Windows Explorer is preferred. Eg. 111.txt< 22.txt < 3.txt
LibrariesOrganize Your Information
Index-backed metadata viewsAggregates multiple storage locationsEnriched experience around documents, pictures, music and videosBased on familiar My Documents experienceDeeply integrated with search
More about Libraries
Supports other Windows Search indexed locationsCustomizable
Create custom libraries (example: for a particular project)Manage existing libraries (locations, save location, rename)Restore defaults
IT can deploy common libraries for the organizationUtilize login script or default user profile or Group Policy PreferenceSaved in %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft \Windows\Libraries
Managing Libraries
Create custom libraries by creating and deploying Library Description (*.library-ms) filesHide or delete the default librariesGroup Policy - Turn off Windows Libraries features that rely on indexed file data
Intended to reduce user confusion Removes the ability to search libraries from the Start Menu, many of the “Arrange by” views and search filters, and snippets in Content view mode.
