A great way to save time when searching for information in Windows Vista is to save some of your searches. For example, if you are frequently searching for the same information, you can save the search and Windows Vista will keep it up-to-date for you.

To save a search in Windows Vista, click the Save Search button that appears along the top of the Search window. Simply type in a name for your search and click Save.

Any saved searches will appear in the Navigation Pane’s Search area. To open one of your saved searches, click the name of the saved search. The contents of the search will open like any other folder, with the search results displayed inside.
