How to Add a Search Filter to Windows Explorer
When I'm browsing local/network drives in Win7, the Search box (upper right in any Explorer window) only offers two filters "Date Modified" and "Size".
The "Add a Search Filter" is grayed out. Frustrating!!
-------------------
Here's some info on search filters that are available to be added-- but I haven''t figured out how to add them yet:
•Date Created: Searches according to when the file was created. You can select the date (or a range of dates) from a mini-calendar that appears.
•Kind: Search for files of a specific type as selected from the drop-down list that appears when you click the Kind option.
•Type: Searches based on certain file types by extension, such as .pdf, .jpg, or .docx.
•Name: Searches by filename. You can enter all or part of the filename in the search text box after the Name filter.
•Tags: This filter lets you search for a file by the tags assigned to it. Enter one or more tags after the Tags filter in the Search text box.
•Authors: Search for file by a particular author. Enter an author name after the Authors filter in the Search text box or select the name from the drop-down list that appears. (This filter is called Artists when searching audio files.)
Your support and guidance is VERY MUCH APPRECIATED! (this is my first post)
Thanks,
Mark...
