...at least for searching files.
When I needed a list of BMP files, for example, in a particular folder, I would enter the command:
DIR/S *.BMP
This operation usually took a few second (depending on the contents of the folder). Doing the same operation in XP using the search feature takes ages. Is it that "dog reading a book" animation that slows it down?
What I really need to know is, is there a more efficient way to search for files in Win XP?
Thanks
