If you waste time looking for files, try Explorer’s advanced search.

Steps:

1. Open File Explorer and click the search bar.
2. Use keywords like kind:document, type:.pdf, or date:>=10/01/2025.
3. Combine searches: report AND 2025 type:.docx.
4. Save frequent searches with “Save Search” (appears on top ribbon).

💡 Pro tip: Use * as a wildcard — like invoice*.pdf to find all invoice files.
