Mario, If I understand you correctly, you're not asking how to find a file, but instead, how to find its path. Yes? If you have Win7 set up in so-called "classic" mode (I don't), the following instructions should work. Meanwhile, I'll try to remember how I figured this out when not set up in classic mode.
go to control panel, open folder options, control tab to view, tab twice to list view then arrow down and check both add path to title bar and address bar. when this is done click apply then ok. Now when you highlight the folder you can tab to the address bar and copy the path. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mario via Jfw Sent: Monday, June 29, 2015 10:34 AM To: The Jaws for Windows support list. Cc: Mario Subject: searching for files hi fellow listers, I'm trying to find out the location (path) of a file. I'm using the search feature in W7, but nothing is found. can someone instruct me as how to do this? I press the Windows key. type the filename, a dot and extension. sometimes I'll use the star/asterisk as a wildcard in place of an extension or letters in a filename. at this point, do I press the enter key? I don't think so, but maybe I do? or might there be a setting that needs to be changed? I'm not sure. I miss XP's file search facility <sigh>. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
