Overview

Here you can select a saved file search, save new file searches or get an overview about the activated search options. To save your personal file search first select the search options on the other tabs (Filename Pattern, Size/Date,...). Then use the "Save" button to store your search options to a new file search, or override any existing. Free a saved file search with the "Delete" button. Saved file searches are stored in the Registry. After a restart they are still available. Use the "Reset" button to clear all activated search options. Use the "Import" and "Export" buttons to save and restore file searches to/from XML files.

Filename Pattern

In the upper check list you can search for files with specific filename patterns (e.g. "TEMP*": all files where the filename begins with TEMP). Use the checkboxes in the list to activate certain patterns without deleting them.
In the lower list you can enter filename patterns to ignore in the file search. You may change or delete existing patterns of the lists by clicking the 'Add' and 'Delete' buttons.
The patterns can include the wild cards '*' (any number of random characters) and "?" (one random character).
Activate "Check also folder paths" to include the full path of the files parent directory.

Size

You may declare a minimum/maximum file size (real size, allocated space or wasted space) so that only files bigger/smaller than this value will be found.

Date

You can search for files with specific last access, last change or creation time.

Owner

Here you can search for files owned by specific users.

Attributes

You can search for files with specified file attributes (e.g.: "Temporary" or "Archive"). By using the check boxes in the list, you can activate and deactivate the attributes.

File Path Length

Search for files with a full path longer than a configurable length. This allows you to find paths longer than 255 characters which cause problems e.g. in the Windows Explorer.
