7
In Windows 7, I want to add tags to my files (PDF, Word, Images etc) so that they appear directly in the search results, regardless of their content, title etc.
This link shows how to search by tag, but it does not tell how to add a tag in any file.
In the long term, I'm planning to add such tags programmatically as well.

You do it from windows explorer view
Just select a file that can have tags added to it and adjust those in the bottom pane. Doesn't matter which view you're using. The link I provided in my comment should help as well. You need to identify that the file type will allow tags as some will not or require third party tools - this link provides a solution for .pdf files, for instance

I could add tags to some files only ... Can i do the same to folder? – Thunder – 2014-09-21T05:35:52.433
2Tip: hit Enter. The tag is silently ignored if you click away from the Add-a-tag dialog. – Bob Stein – 2015-01-23T13:29:27.563

1Add tags or other properties to a file should also be useful. – Kunal Jha – 2013-12-31T05:07:02.157
