When searching in files or for files it will not find any files not registered. You can change this in your registry.

Registry Editor
Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ContentIndex\]
Value Name: FilterFilesWithUnknownExtensions
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1 = Search all file types
