Description Sudhir Khanger 2016-10-17 08:55:49 UTC
When I search for a file in the AppDash it show me results of directories and files that have never been opened. It would show me pretty random files say from sdk folder which would typically contain like 10k text files but it never shows me one file that I open everyday and is available in the recent document history too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a document which will probably get added in recent document
2. search for the document
3.

Actual Results:  
The recent document or any useful document opened by a user are never shown in the app dash search instead it shows random files from sdk folder or bookmarks.

Expected Results:  
At least recent documents should get much more priority. Priority of files that have never been opened should be severely reduced.

Please see the attached image. For example, I open the file Udacity Ap.. everyday. If you look for that file you won't find it in the search results shown by AppDash.
