I hate tags in Vista
Among the “innovations” of Windows Vista there is a search stupidly ripped off the Mac.
I do not know how it was done in the poppy (already asked one girl in the habrahabr to write about this post), but in Vista it is searched not only by name and content, but also by metadata.
Steve Ballmer and another crowd of fanatics of Vista from Microsoft, with bulging eyes, praise and rejoice in the magical ability to add tags to files from a heap of different places - explorer, save file dialog, image viewer ... That's the way they write everywhere, “add tags to files”. But if you read it many times, then perhaps the question is - uh ... but to all the files, right?
So, the answer, of course, is NO. NO to all. And here, sorry, begins ass. Here you can add tags to these types:
To others - it is impossible. You know, it may seem to you that I have nothing to do and begin to find fault with the cool new OS chips, but just think about it!
Here I gathered a bunch of funny videos and decided to put the label “humor” to them. That's cool, right? Then he pressed the start, entered “humor” and got everything marked with this label ... FIG! After all, the videos I have are not only wmv (he himself is in shock!), But for example avi, to which tags can not be added.
JPG can be, PNG no!
To MP3 you can, to WAV no ...
I understand that they store these tags in the file itself, and not all formats allow it. But I don't care about that. To use this is simply impossible, so to play.
There are many functions in Vista that work best on the presentations of these functions, but they are not adapted for serious work. And this is one of them. I hate tags in Vista.

- Microsoft Office Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access files.
- Windows Media Audio, Windows Media Video.
- TIFF, JPEG.
- MP3
- XPS - Microsoft PDF.
- MSI installation files.
