- This file is an image of Taj Mahal, therefore I added a tag “Monuments” to it. Similarly you could add other information.
- Note: You can add more than one tag to the same file.
Now search for any file using the start menu search box. If I type monument in the given box, TajMahal.jpg comes up in the result. It is due to the tag associated with the image file.
