JAKARTA Windows Search Index or searchindexer.exe in Task Manager is a feature that continues to work in the background of computer systems. This feature will scan files and folders continuously.
This feature appears in Windows 11 to build a searchable database to allow quick file search. This feature can index important user folders, ranging from documents, images, videos, and other folders.
This feature often drains the battery because it works automatically in the background. Even though the user activates the battery-saving feature, this feature often keeps working because the indexer ignores Windows power management settings.
If this feature is allowed to continue, the battery life and system performance of your device will also be affected. The more files the user has, the greater the impact it will have.
The good news is that Windows Search Index is an optional service. This means that users can disable the feature whenever they want. In addition, this feature will not cause problems on the device used.
