+"""Windows Search index (Windows.db, Windows 11) parser for DLEAPP.
+
+Author: @AlexisBrignoni, Claude.
+Inspired by the Velociraptor exchange Windows.Search work. This is the SQLite
+sibling of windowsSearch.py: Windows 11 (22H2 and later) replaced the ESE
+Windows.edb search index with a SQLite database, Windows.db.
+
+Windows.db keeps indexed-item properties as (WorkId, ColumnId, Value) triples in
+a SystemIndex_<n>_PropertyStore table, with a SystemIndex_<n>_PropertyStore_
+Metadata table mapping each ColumnId to its System.* property name. This artifact
+pivots the triples back to one row per indexed item.
