Search Files Based on the File Name and Location (BAR)

If you want to search for a file or a file pattern by using the name or location of the file, you can specify your search criteria accordingly in the Name & Location tab in the File Search dialog.

To search files based on the file name and location

  1. Enter the file name you want to search for in the Named field. Wildcards are also supported for the search function, such as *.txt for a search of all .txt files.

    Note: You can search only for the files and folders available in the DSM file explorer.

  2. Enter the location for the folders (on a local drive or a mapped network drive) you want to search for in the Location field. Or, click Browse to locate the appropriate folders.
  3. (Optional) Select Include subfolders to include subfolders in the search.

Note: The file search option is not available in the Enterprise DSM Explorer.
