How to Use the Windows File Manager
This is jimmyr.com. I will be talking a little bit more about the windows file manager. And try to teach you some tricks you might not have known.
A lot of people hate going to My Computer to see drive, program files and going through all that stuffs just to find the file they are looking for. It is just inconvenient. If you already have the file, open the folder open now you can just copy the address far and paste in the address to automatically go to the folder.
It is very simple trick and it is very convenient and now that I am in the folder that I want, I can use an old trick. A lot of people know about this one is just *.* it shows all the files in the directory. But a lot of people do not know that I can customized this code and search for especial items like for example I want only the file let us say “ajax” so I put *ajax* and that is only going to find the files that have the keyword ajax inside them. I can specify more let us say xtml that long will give me the one file that has xtml at the end. If only go back, here I am in the file called the index and I am going back one level too to my ht docs directory and I am going to open the index again, I will just type it again. As you can see it automatically gives me a drop down list when I type the index.
But with a lot of people do not know as can have the slash and start browsing the contents of the index automatically. See I just got a key padding slash and then automatically give me a drop down listing of what is in that folder. It is very simple trick; it is very useful so you do not have to be spending time looking for the file you want. It will give you the drop down box and if you know the letter that starts with, you can open the file a lot faster.
