File Find
The File Find tab of the Computers grid enables you to search for a file through the results of the Detailed File Scan. By default, each entry in the results list contains the following information:
-
Computer Name - the name of the computer where the file was detected
-
User - the user name on whose computer the file was detected
-
File Name - the name of the file
-
Publisher - the name of the company that produced the file
-
Product Name - the name of the product with which the file is distributed
-
Product Version - the version number of the product with which the file is distributed
-
Path - the full path to the file on the hard drive
-
Size - the size of the file in bytes
-
File Version - the version number of the file
-
Description - the description of the file
-
Date - the date and time when the file was last modified
NOTE: You can search for files only if you have performed at least one audit with the Detailed Scan enabled for at least one file mask. Otherwise, the results list of your search appears empty. For details, see File Scan.
When you search for a file using all properties of the detected files (Everywhere), the results can be a very large list to look through. You can narrow down the scope by defining the target file property from the In drop-down list.
To search for a file:
-
In the Sidebar, select the Site or Collection and open the Computers grid, where you want to search for a file.
-
On the File Find tab, specify the search query within the Text to find field. If you have recently searched for the same text, you can select the text from the drop-down list of the search query field.
NOTE: The file search is case-insensitive and does not support wildcards.
-
Define where you want to search for the entered text by selecting the target field from the In drop-down list.
-
Click Find. The results of the search operation appear in the grid.
