    Jlacy,

    I'm not sure what you are stumped about. Please let us know.

    You would just set your search options for how you want searches done, then you can search from the Computer window to search all drives.

    Solution:

    in windows explorer type *.* in the search box while in the folder you want to search. This searches for all files
    and folders in the directory, if u wish to search just mp3 files u can type *.mp3 or for images *.jpeg etc etc

    hope this helps and very true about stepping forward then taking a huge step back
