Search by name:

If you don't know the name of file but know that it contains a string of text then try to search for files containing specific text, type the text you want to find from any file or folder.

Search by file extension:

If you cannot remember where you saved a file on your hard drive you can try searching for it using its file extension (for example for word file, type *.doc, Excel *.xls, Acrobat *.pdf, *.ppt and *.exe for executable files.

 

To save time, always select the specified drive or location instead of whole computer.
