How do you access the Windows 10 SystemIndex in a .Net Core app since OleDb is unsupported?

Question

I have a .Net Framework app that I am porting to .Net Core 3.1. It queries the system index to find relevant files using AQS and OleDb. But how do I get the same functionality in .Net Core 3.1 since Ole Db is not supported?

(Btw, the keyword system is dreadful.)

Answer 1

I did a test with .NET Core 3.1 and ADODB works
(by adding reference to "C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\ado\msado15.dll" )
