    Hi! Wonderful program! Congratulations!

    I've been reading the discussions and documentation, but I didn't find how to search by file type or search just folders names?

    Can you let me know?

    Thanks!!!!!

      Hi, thanks! To search for folder names, you can search for paths that end in a backslash. There is no way to search for file types directly in the GUI, but you can always sort by file types. You can also always dump the table into a CSV and process the output in e.g. Excel (though you should narrow down your search as much as possible to avoid large files).

      You can also use the command-line version and search using grep, etc. if you're familiar with those.

        thanks for the really quick reply and tips!

        Regarding "search for paths that end in a backslash" would it be possible you give me an example?

        Thanks!

    You can search for a specific file extension just by including the extension at the end of the search text.
