Hello, when you use your index search it can use a lot of your computers' resources, both your processor and memory. If you have a large amount of information on your drive and only limited resources then this can cause you computer to slow down as you've described. When your searching it might be a good idea to search separate items of where you might have an idea where it will be found e.g. C:\My Documents\My Downloads.
