file search

I'm running Windows 8.1. When I save a document in Word 2013 and I begin to enter a tag I use often ("Public Speaking"), Word suggests a short list of tags as I type. That list contains the tag "public speaking anxiety" (with four spaces between "public" and "speaking"). I'd like to...

Today I finally took the time to look into the error that was preventing me from installing Windows 8.1, and I was easily able to overcome it after reading a short guide regarding two commands in command prompt. I was successfully able to install windows 8.1 as a result, and everything is...

Is there a way to modify Windows 7 to have a contextual right click file / folder search capability like Windows XP has?? The search function in Windows 7 is neither quick nor easy. I don't know what Microsoft thought they were accomplishing by eliminating the WinXP search capability. Is that...

Hi All I'm Paolo from Italy. I have a strange problem with my Pc (window 7 64 bit). Sometimes (2-3 times a day) I have a BSOD. Sometimes I have this problem when I open the "Computer" icon in the Start folder. Sometimes I have this problem when I try to search a file. Sometimes I have this...

I installed Comodo System Utilities 4 the other day to test it. I used Revo Uninstaller Pro to both install it and uninstall it. Revo found numerous leftovers and deleted them all. After removing it and rebooting (past the Windows logo), I noticed a brief message at the black screen just before...

I have tried everything; Rebuilding the search index, enabling and disabling windows searching under Features, and restarting my computer over and over after making changes but I cannot get the start search bar to return any results. For example, I have a .exe file on my desktop called...

I've found a file with the file name "^.~" (as in file name "^" and file extension "~") in my Win7 C: root directory. It's just my luck that searching for this in any search engine brings up no results, so I can't get an answer that way. From what I can tell, the file wasn't already there when...

I want to search for videos only on my PC and there is no such filter. I only have "Date modified" and "Size". With XP I could choose what type of files to search for. Is there a way to have the excellent search filters that I had with XP in my Win ?:confused_smile:

Sorry - ignore - Mods can delete post as I just found the answer :) Put the search in quotes! =============== Hi all I unfortunately "hard" deleted a folder I really needed but have thankfully managed to recover almost all of the files in it (nearly 2000 of them!!). The problem now is that in...

The attached SnagIt capture demonstrates all of the weird add-ins I am getting in my Excel app. I am wondering if this is a security problem since I can't locate any of them in my file search

Hi I really don't get this! If a computer can do anything it should be able to find files. Today I needed to find a file that I did for my niece a year ago. I don't remember what I named it or where I saved it. After trying a few things I decided to narrow it down by just getting a list of...

I can't figure out how to search for a file that contains a particular string in Windows Explorer 9. (I have 9 because that's what was on it when I got my new computer. 8 was the best I could find in the dropdown.) What is supposed to happen when you click "Add a search filter"? Nothing...
