Windows Search: command for very quick searches

Windows Search: Below we will see a command that can search for you much faster than Windows Explorer.

Searching for a file through Windows Explorer can take forever. But there is a much faster way if you are willing to use the line of functional you.Windows

Use the command below to search for any disk and you'll usually be done in a few minutes .
To open a command prompt box in Windows press together πλήκτρα Win+R. Στο πλαίσιο που θα ανοίξει πληκτρολογήστε cmd και πιέστε .

Alternatively in the box of Windows type cmd and open the command prompt window from there.

Let's look at the command:

dir "\ iguru *" / s

If your order is Chinese, we will try to explain it below:

dir is a command used to display files in the current folder, but it can display files anywhere on the system.
The slash requires searching from the of the current ς .
The / s command tells the dir to look for all the subdirectories.
Finally, the asterisk (*) is used by the command line as a wildcard. So a command of the type *.txt will show you all the files that end with “.txt”, while the * will show you all filenames starting with the word “iguru”

Tip: To make it even simpler, what is between the quotes ("search term") is the search term you want.

That's it. Create your own command and you will be surprised by it your system search response.
To mention that the command will not work on .

  1. I also tried the Voidtools Everything program suggested by my friend and I confess that I was impressed.
    As for dir it is good but it works under DOS with all that implies for features and usability

  2. There is always Voidtools Search Everything which offers instant search on all disks, external as well, using logical operations. One of the first programs I install on any system. It's worth covering with one of your articles!
