I right clicked on a folder in Explorer, and could not see any Find or
Search option. Where is it?
 
Top right hand corner of the Explorer window.

The "Search" context menu, and the Search link in the right-hand side of the Start menu are removed when you install Windows Vista Service Pack 1. See:

If you wish to restore the Start menu Search link, check this post for a registry edit.
