F3 works fine here. As another person replied, you can add Folder Path to
your Explorer windows.
As to getting an answer from MS here... don't hold your breath. Some MS'ers
hang out here and respond when appropriate, but this is a -User's- group,
and as such, one should expect replies from "regular folks", not MS
employees.
I -much- prefer Vista's search over XP's or any other previous version of
Windows. That's just my personal opinion, though... obviously, you're not a
fan, and there have been some replies that concur with your way of thinking.
To each his own, on this one, methinks.
