4.2.4. Searching for Deleted Files and Folders
Searching for Files by Name
If you know the name or part of the name of the deleted files or
folders, create a search pattern, similar to a search in Microsoft
DOS or Windows.
The asterisk or star symbol (*) is used as a wild-card character.
The search engine looks for the file name, replacing the star with
any number of characters.
The question mark symbol (?) is used to replace a single variable
character. The search engine looks for the file name and replaces
the question mark with another single character.
Examples of Searchable Expressions:
* - All named files on the drive or in the folder
*.TXT - All files with the suffix "TXT"
My*.* - All files starting with "My"
MyFile.txt - Search for the file named "MyFile.txt".
My p????. - All files starting with "My p" text, having eight characters
in the file name and no suffix or extension
