Hi everyone,
I want to find a specific file name in folder or subfolder, but am not sure how to include all subfolders with the Folder: statement.
1. How would I set up my search to find the file Config.xml in the folder c:\MyPath or any of the MyPath subfolders
2. How would I do number one above for a specific subfolder down the path (e.g. c:\MyPath\..\SubFolderPath\..
Thanks!

Re: combining Folder: with file name search
Make sure you turn on "Match Path" in the Search menu, otherwise use the verb "path:" somewhere in your search term.
1. path:"C:\MyPath\" "Config.xml"
or just C:\MyPath\ Config.xml if none of the path or file terms contain any spaces and you turned on "Match Path."
2. C:\MyPath\ \SubFolderPath\ Config.xml
quotation marks are only needed if any of your search elements contain spaces that you wish to preserve.
