I'm searching for pictures based on keywords and description tags but the only results I get back are pictures where the search words are only in the actual file name.
I had installed JPEG iFilter; that didn't get the results I wanted so, having read which files WDS indexes and seeing that it indexed picture files using the meta-data, I uninstalled JPEG iFilter with the hope that WDS would get me the results I wanted but it doesn't.
I've re-indexed a couple of times but that hasn't helped.
Any ideas
WDS not returning results based on picture meta-tags

Could you try rebuilding your index and re-running your search I'm not familiar with JPEG IFilter and it may have changed the property data that was indexed by WDS. Building a fresh index without the IFilter installed will help us further investigate.

JPGEG iFilter just indexes some metadata. To have access to all metadada I installed PixVue. However, as I already reported in this forum, the files indexed by PixVue don't show under "Pictures" category but only under "Everything".
