Hi... I have troubles with searchin in Windows Explorer
If I navigate to C:\Windows\System32\ and search for net*.sys, couple of
files in drivers\ are found. However, If I navigate to C:\Windows, no items
match my search. Why? How can I search through all files on my hard disk?

Where can I see which folder is now being searched?

Thanks,
  Jan

are your sure that the setting to search all subfolders is checked?

Yes, otherwise it wouldn't find the files in drivers\ subfolder. Just try
it.

Not yet, since I don't have the tool. I will get today to broadband
connection and report it.
Happy to see that this is not only my case.
