How to Find Those Lost Computer Files

Many computer users download a file to the computer and forget exactly where the file was placed. I've downloaded computer files many times and thought that they were stored in the download folder. And to my surprise they were not there when I checked the file! Sounds like a real frustrating problem. But, actually it's not a big problem at all. Windows has a very good way to find those lost files hiding on the hard drive This post computer help you to find your lost file and folder.

Open any folder on your computer desktop and click the search button located at the very top. A search box appears on the left side of the folder.

A few options are displayed on the search box. Check the display box. And select an option.

Now type in the name of the file that you are searching for on the computer. Type the complete computer file name to speed up the search results. Typing in a partial name brings up all sorts of files that might not have anything to do with the search file.

Hit the search button. Now the computer searches through the computer for files with that name. If files are found that match your search term
they should display in the window. Check the results. And click to open the file that matches your search.
