Win7 File Search Tips

Important Notes

(1) the search string is case insensitive

(2) strings with double quotes and without double quotes are different.

such as: Hello, search for a file or directory containing the beginning of the Hello Word, named "Aa_hellocc ...", "cc-hello99 ...", "FF hellot ...", "Mm+hellokk ..." will be searched

For example: "Hello", search for a file or directory that completely contains hello words, called "Aa_hello_", "cc-hello$", "FF hello% ...", "Mm+hello!..." will be searched //conditions more stringent

Note: words are sliced by non-alphanumeric characters

Wildcard characters

*.jpg //* for any character or kanji, search for a file or directory with a suffix of. jpg

The melon //? Represents a character or kanji

operator -Uppercase required

China and Lake //contains files or directories that begin with China and lake, equivalent to: ChinaLake or China + Lake

Lake not China //contains a file or directory containing lake that does not contain the beginning of the Chinese word, equivalent to:Lake-china

Lake or China /file or directory containing the beginning of a lake or Chinese word
