| | Locating locking files (i.e., files beginning with ~) in Explorer Hello, I periodically try to find and delete stranded locking files. I have tried the following searches, and they all return incorrect results: ~ ~*.* ~.* Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Keith |

| | Thanks! That worked. Also, I have been trying to find a comprehensive dictionary of advanced Explorer search syntax. Would you happen to know where I can find this? All the best, Keith |
