Install a search engine
A Google plug-in for Norton Ghost is required before
you can use Google Search to locate and recover files.
The plug-in is installed for you automatically when
you enable this feature.

“To enable Google Desktop support”
on page 177.
Enable Google Desktop support
When you define a backup job, or edit an existing
backup job, enable search engine support.
The next time the backup is run, it creates a list of all
files contained in the resulting recovery point. A
search engine, such as Google Desktop, can then use
the list to generate its own index, enabling you to
perform searches by file name.
See
“To enable search engine support for a backup
job”
on page 177.
Enable search engine support when
defining or editing a backup job
Note:
Recovery points that already exist when you enable this feature cannot be
indexed. This restriction is because the generated list of files that are required by
search engines for generating searchable indexes are appended to recovery points
as they are created. After you enable this feature, run each of your backups in
order to create a new recovery point that contains the required information for
indexing.
Note:
If your backup destination is on a network drive, be sure to add the location
to the Google Desktop preferences.
