Usually it's folders of files which are not from me (eg a programming
library) which I find I need to search.
Also the folder system used on most file systems only lets you put a file
into one location (unless you get tangled up with soft and hard links or
hundreds of shortcuts). With a proper DMS a file should be filed under
several different categories (eg "Project A", "General electrical issues",
"Work done by Scott", "Work for customer X", etc). As this isn't easily
possible using Windows Explorer then the only option sometimes is to search.
