How can I configure an option of advanced search in Windows 7?

Original title: How do you get an option of advanced search in windows 7 as we could for earlier versions and calmly set your search?

When I click in the main search field, that I want to set the the bottom of box main search to the left of the screen but he rockets off.

It seems to be a limited selection of options that open up sometimes in blue under the search box which turns at the top of the right hand in Explorer can't see untial I put a word in the search box, sometimes just date arrives at other times can see other options such as the file.

Did not work what to do to access these options.

Reading on the advanced options, I see that I can type in the various symbols in the search.

Is that what someone has produced an add on make life easier when searching?

For example, I would first find the records to find files in folders by a specific word of the file type.

Any suggestions welcome.

Hello

Thanks for posting the question in the Microsoft Community forums.

I see that you need to know more information on how to set-up an option of advanced search in Windows 7.

Let's see a few articles and see how it works.

Searching in Windows 7 can be as simple as typing a few letters in the search box, but there are also techniques of advanced search you can use. You don't have to know these techniques to search for your files, but they can be useful depending on where you are looking and what you are looking for.

    Glad to hear it!

    As a minor note, may actually specify the key as the "parm" and it will work - which translates as 1885434477 and makes it a little more readable there is probably a constant somewhere for this also, because I imagine "parm" is pretty generic and used in several actions.

  • How can I change my options of hijacked search defalt back to normal?

    In recent days, I noticed that my search engine by default, on the Firefox homepage as well as on the search bar, has been changed to Yahoo. I changed the two back only to find that the settings reset themselves every time the browser is closed.

    Since then, I have traveled dozens of sons to help in the other forums looking for a solution. Nothing works. I checked the yahoo software and AVG, I started in safe mode, I disabled plugins and Add-ons, suspect I deleted unwanted in the browser and hard disk search options. No dice.

    I want to know how to change my default search to google engine.

    For those who have similar problems, it seems that the culprit was a program called SearchSettings.exe that was running in the background on my computer. The program is often part of a set of search bar. In the case of my machine, however, the search bar is not installed and therefore appear in my browser does not add ons or my Add/Remove Programs menu.

  • How can I configure the cell data format

    How can I configure data format of cell numbers: for example, I want to capture 123456.78 and need to be 12A3456.78?

    I tried to put #A # #. # format option, but it didn't work a few time and it became A123456.78.

    I also tried on excel and it worked very well, but I like the numbers better. is there a solution to this problem?

    Thank you

    HEY Chi - Lun,

    I don't think that this is possible as many number format. You should be able to insert A in a text string using a formula, but this would happen in a second cell, not that the number has been entered.

    "Assuming all the"numbers require the same inserted letter after the second number, this should do the work."number" entered in column A; the formula in column B. In the table below, your value as an example is A6.

    = Left (A, 2) & "A" & RIGHT (A, LEN (A) - 2)

    Kind regards

  • How can I configure my Mozilla Thunderbird to me for new confirmed before leaving?

    I used to use Microsoft outlook. In outlook, we use the button 'close' at the top right of a mail to close this letter.
    In thunderbird, this 'x' is available on the top somewhere in the middle.

    To close a mail, I click on the upper right corner by mistake and the release of Thunderbird (which I didn't) by mistake.

    How can I configure my Mozilla Thunderbird to me for new confirmed before leaving?

    As far as I can see there is no easy way to do this. However, an easy option is to have the Thunderbird in the system tray on hitting the close instead of closing button. The add-on "Minimize on start and close" for Thunderbird accomplishes this mission and to close all what you need to do is right-click on the icon in the taskbar, and then click close to close actually it. I hope this helps.

  • How can I configure mobile android password manager copy all of my passwords from firefox to my office?

    How can I configure my new mobile password manager for my android phone copy all of my passwords from firefox to my office?
    Right now, I noticed there is only about 8 passwords listed.
    But my office saved password manager has about 50 listed.
    This makes me think that the android app is to choose only to remember what I saved directly with my android. I want to capture all my saved passwords from my desktop also.
    I tried recheck my firefox sync options, but only confirmed that I don't have this game automatically synchronize all my data (including passwords.)

    I found that I have to press the 'Menu' (three horizontal lines in a square) in the mobile view and connect until I'm able to meet Firefox on Android.

    Now that you're on your desktop: try passwords uncheck in synchronization preferences, wait a few seconds, then check again. Then on your phone, the settings of the open Android app, accounts & sync, choose your Firefox Sync account, then Menu > sync now.

  • Satellite A200-1AE: How can I configure the settings of buttons Dual Mode Pad?

    Hello

    I recently bought a Satellite A200-1AE. I tried to configure the default first button on my touch pad (lower left) so that I can fire up MSWord, but it did not work.

    Now every time I have set the mode button and press this button, that nothing not to pass - I lost practically this button.

    My question is how can I configure the mode button on the touch pad settings? Even if I was able to start a program by using the 3 buttons how can I modify these programs?

    Thanks for your help!

    p.s. I read the extended version of the manual for my laptop. There is no explanation of my problem - it says I should look "Synaptics Dual Mode Pad properties.

    I don't know where are these properties.

    Hello

    It s is not so difficult as you think, the properties of the synaptics are in the "mouse properties" of your "Control Panel" of windows. When you reach the 'mouse', then click on the "Advanced" tab and you should find a button 'Advanced functionality settings'.
    It could be that the button is not named as mine, but it must be identical.
    After clicking on it, you should look for this 'easy' Launcher in one of the tabs.

    I think that you will make it, but I'd like some feedback from you.

    How can I configure Outlook Express to receive messages to different mailboxes (via POP3) but to send messages and responses using only a single SMTP account?

    In other words, I need to download via POP3 messages sent to the * address email is removed from the privacy *, * address email is removed from the privacy *, * address email is removed from the privacy * but I want to send messages using Mar SMTP service associated to * address email is removed from the privacy *

    If I get a message like * address email is removed from the privacy * I want to answer as * address email is removed from the privacy *.

    Is this possible?

    How can I configure Outlook Express?

    Concerning

    Marius

    You can do this if the Server SMTP allows you to send from a location that you are not connected via their internet service.  So if you have this permission, go to tools | Accounts | Add mail.  Then under the account of property | You want to set the server for incoming mail to the POP3 account, and then the SMTP protocol for the other account that you use to send servers.  And then indicate whether or not the server requires authentication, and if yes, then you will need to put in the user name and password for the SMTP server it.  Under properties. Advanced to define appropriate ports that may be different from the default value according to e-mail accounts.  You can also check the "leave a copy of messages on the server" for accounts POP3, if you access messages from multiple computers.

    Once you have an account set up, then you can set others upward in the same way, but change the POP3 properties for each while leaving the SMTP ones the same.

    Once you have all that in place, you might want to backup things in case something goes wrong: www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6
