PC help: Find files fast

Quickly locate the folders and files you want

Computeractive Staff, Computeract!ve 23 May 2008

If you have a folder that contains a lot of files or subfolders, it can be tedious scrolling through them all to find the entry you’re looking for.

However, assuming you know its name, there is a quick way to locate a specific file or folder without using a mouse.

First open the relevant folder. Now, using the keyboard, simply type the first letter of the name of the file or folder you’re looking for and the selection highlight will jump to the first file or folder that starts with that letter. You can type further letters if you want, to have the selection immediately highlight the specific file.
