• Search for Windows 7, why not if give me the files that are not yet in my augument search?

  Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit OS.

  Have a lot of files are duplicated.

  In Windows 7 lets say the files in the folder have files that look like:

  Bill 120.le rar
  Bill 121, rar
  Bill 1 .rar

  and we want to remove duplicates with '(1) '.
  and we enter research * (*)

  Under XP it would only list the file: Bill 1 .rar IF you entered *(*.)  or *) * or (1), etc.

  Bill 1 .rar

  In Windows 7, since I started to use Win 7 years, everything I do is get frustrited when it will sometimes give me what I ask for the Bill 1 .rar.
  but most of the time like now, will give me ALL the files WITH and WITHOUT the "()".

  Bill 120.le rar
  Bill 121, rar
  Bill 1 .rar

  WHY?  and how can he give me what I asked?

  (I tried ALL the settings and they all do the same thing)

  Enter in the search box:

  name: ~ = "{}"

  The ~ = indicates to Windows 7 search to look anywhere in the name.  Usually, the quotes would not be needed, but( ) has a functional use of search for Windows 7, and the quotes tell Windows 7 search just deal with ( ) as a chararacter.  I tried to find a way to search for a (?), after? as a wildcard but couldn't.  [Update: solution concludes, at the end of the post]  However, you can enter this to search for files named with the two ( and ), but not necessarily appearing in the (#) form.

  nom : ~ = "(" nom : ~ = "")" »

  or more compactly,

  nom : (~ = "(" ~ = "")" »)

  Update: more than a month later, I realized the more compactly.  Subsequently, the? is interpreted as a wildcard character.  If more digits is possible, then additional search with? exactly two for? for exactly three and so on.

  Name: ~ "* (?) *"

  If filename: is used instead, then the tilde is redundant:

  filename: "* (?)" *"

  command to search for windows is genuine or not?

  can someone answer this question?

• Help? A matter of search for Windows 7...

  I need to do a search for - only - hidden files or folders.  I know I can put Explorer "Show hidden files and folders", but it shows - all files, not just those with the hidden attribute.  I don't want to go through every file on my machine to pick them up.

  Any help would be appreciated, thanks :)

  We cannot directly use Windows 7 search to generate a list of items with a specified attribute.  We can however in the command prompt.  Or, a third option is to use another software of research that is out there that allows searching by attribute.

  If using Windows 7 search, search using other properties you want, and then set the results window to display the named attributes column.  (You can specify the columns of information appear - just right-click on any column title to display a menu, then click more... for a list.)  Move the pointer of the mouse on the title attributes column and button click the arrow that appears to the right of the title.  Click to put check marks in the boxes to the left of the desired attributes and combinations of attributes in the list of choices that appears.

  Alternatively, with search for Windows 7, you can search with the attributes property, but oddly only by a numeric code that represents the sum of all the attributes of a file could have.  Looking for attributes: 2 will give you all the files that have the hidden only attribute and no other attributes, but because the files can have several attributes, there are numerous possible different amounts you would search too so it isn't practical.

  With a command prompt window, you can navigate the directory (folder or disk) that you want to search in (if you are familiar with the tricks of MS-DOS) and enter:

  dir / a: h/s/b > results.txt

  to create a file named results.txt in the current directory.  Leave aside the/s if you do not want the included subdirectories in the search.  Leave aside the/b (naked format) If you want to see the date, time, size and the information summarized for each file.

  Other software from research that can search by specified attribute includes:

• Windows Explorer for Windows 7 - How to stop automatically sort my files

  I have Windows 7.  Explorer Windows automatically sorts my files in each folder.  I put in "sort by..." Name ', so for now he is sorting alphabetically, but no matter what I put in 'Grading', it does it automatically.  But I want to be able to move the files to the folder in different orders, and then once I'm satisfied with the order, then I can change the name of each file and then choose to classify them alphabetically or otherwise.

  For example, this is useful for a folder full of photos.  Let's say I have a folder with 50 photos in there of holiday, and I would like to re - order these photos, but I want to play visually with different orders until I have decide to order, I like most.  So I want to move each file/photo until I like the Decree.  To do this, I would open this particular folder in Windows Explorer, then select the "Large icons" view and then moving the photos until I like order.  And then once I have pictures in the order I want, then I would like to rename each picture (1, 2, 3, etc.) and then Windows Explorer say "sort by...» Nu.  That's how it was on my old computer, but I got XP and now I have Windows 7, but I can't imagine that Windows 7 would not let me do the same thing.  But the way it works for me now, Windows Explorer comes automatically orders/sorts my files depending on the option "sort by" I chose.  So if I change the name of the files (from 'Photo #25' to ' Photo #10 "'), it automatically goes this photo between" Photo #09 "and" Photo #11 ".»»  And if I try to move 'Photo #10' next to say "#37 picture"to see how they look next to each other, it won't let me. "

  so... Is it possible to have Windows Explorer "NOT" sort my files until I have to say?

  Thank you very much!

  See auto arrange links below - it is possible to disable.

  Microsoft has deliberately removed the ability to turn off the auto arrange. Microsoft's response:

  Can I manually organize files in folders?

  Unfortunately when Microsoft Windows Explorer, they made some pretty horrible decisions - which many people complained. There are a lot of other managers of files available, as well free and for a price. One of them might be easier to use and the characteristics you want, here is a list of the most that are available:

  How to fix the Bug of scrolling in the left pane
  See the bottom of this post for help with the bug of scrolling in the left pane.

  The most important features that need to be returned to Windows Explorer:

  (1) the option to turn off the auto arrange.

  (2) fix the Bug of scrolling in the left pane: If you view a folder and expand in the left pane to display its subfolders, the folder is annoyingly prefer to the bottom of the component causing the subfolders do not appear, making it difficult to work with.

  (3) when several files are selected they should stay selected when changing the sort order (ex: name of size). Maintenance of the files selected in the sort should be a requirement, and this feature should not have been removed.

  (4) the option to remember the view settings of each folder (Recalling the positions and sizes of the individual folder window).

  (5) the option to remove 'Complete the selection of lines' to see in detail. "Selection of whole lines" is very annoying when the file is complete and has no empty space to click on. Also, when dragging / delete the file to another folder - if you release the on the line of a subfolder or file de.exe/.zip/.rar 'selection of whole lines' causes the file to be moved in the subfolder ou.exe/.zip/.rar instead file the file provided.

  (6) a search engine with all the advanced search options. No required syntax.

  (7) the option to always display free disk size space and record on the State and/or the details pane toolbar. Also always automatically show the size of the selected files (when several files are selected it will not show the total size).

  (8) the ability to scroll the window/pane mouse is with the mouse wheel, even if this window/pane is not selected.

  Inform you want Windows explorers returned Microsoft functions:

  Given that many people seem to agree that some or all of the changes made to Windows Explorer were actually less friendly user, you can go to the Windows 7 comments page and (politely) to let them know your suggestions to improve:

  http://mymfe.Microsoft.com/Windows%207/feedback.aspx?formid=195

  Note: do not have the message that is too long, there is a size limit for your message, even if page does not tell you on this subject. Also, do not just copy and paste from the list above - they'll think that the same person is repeatedly submit comments.

  Using the classic interface to restore functionality of Windows Explorer

  After you have installed the free Classic Shell , you can customize Windows Explorer more closely to how you want it, the quote below is just a way to do it. Click here to see some of the options that you can customize, and here is the FAQ page.

  A solution that worked for the restoration of some features.

  (1) install the free classic Shell. It's free, completely customizable and works like a mod for Windows Explorer, rather than a full blown replacement. Personally, I did not fit the classic Start Menu option, but you can if you wish.
  (2) restart the computer.
  (3) launch Windows Explorer and turn on "Always show Menus" (it's just for the configuration, you can disable it again later if you want).
  (4) make a right click on the menu bar and turn in the "Classic Explorer bar. This adds a series of icons for cut/copy/paste in Explorer. Basically, it also adds the "Configuration" icon
  5) go to the configuration and from there you can edit things to your heart's content. To kill the horrible record-jumping 7 Windows, place you Vista in 'Style Navigation pane. You can even go more retro and hit return to XP mode if you want (this adds lines to the tree of folders and adds a classic icon "+" for the expansion of folders).
  (6) set the parameters of other institutions. I have so that the bit "more details" in the dialogues of copy is automatically extended, I checked the option "display free space and size of the file in the status bar" (no need to right click on the drive to see how much space is left), personally, I decided to stay with the "overwrite file" dialog box Windows 7 style (the default is the simplest dialogue style Vista/XP) , and I went for the Windows Vista style folders display that looks about the same as the view from Windows 7, but get rid of the horrible jump.

  After that, you can activate the toolbar and menus walk back to explore if you wish. Explorer Windows seems largely the same, but folders is no longer jumping around.

  Now if only MS allows to code correctly so that we don't have to mess with third-party applications to get Windows actually works...

  Hello
  You can follow the steps and then check.

  Step 1:
  You can try to disable the antivirus installed on your computer software.
  You can see the following link.
  Disable the anti-virus software
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

  NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
   
  Step 2:
  You can try to reset the Windows Update components. Read the following article.
