    finding multiple extentions on search


    Can I use the search engine on w7 to find multiple extensions? IE .tif and .jpg. I have a lot of photos on my drives, and I am trying to see what I have. I can find one type then I have to do a search for the other. It is a pain to go back and forth. Or is there an other program I can use.

    I use and like File Locator Lite (aka Agent Ransack) because it is easy to use, doesn't require indexing, it's free, doesn't replace Win 7 search...
    Others here may prefer W7 search and help you learn to use W7 search.

    File Locator Lite does what you are asking for - easily searching for multiple extensions...

    I don't know about Windows but with Everything Search(works only on NTFS partitions) you can search multiple extensions using the pipe symbol. Example .tif | .jpg
