Search for a page in sessions files?

Is there a way to search for a specific page by title / URL that might be in one of my ~130 session files?

I know they're all text files, but with the .win extension Windows is unable to search the files' content...
How can I make Windows look for text inside the files? Or will I need to get a software to rename all the files to .txt?

Hey, just posting to say I could make it work in Windows 7.

Accessing the Indexing Options from the Control Panel, then going in Advanced options, File Types tab.
There you can add the extension .win and select the indexing property "Index Properties and File Contents", and it's done. smile

I just didn't make it before because I thought this option had nothing to do with indexing (the folder isn't even indexed), the option is not so obvious but well it works. happy
