I ran into this strange issue where when I try to search for a particular file, it does not search the entire directories and subdirectories. Is there something wrong with the filesystem? Thanks.
Is the directory path that you are trying to search greater than 255 chars in length? Win2K had this issue if the directory tree was too deep. If this is the case, you can use the SUBST command to create a substituted drive that points to the long directory as follows;
SUBST X: C:\dir\subdir1\subdir2........\subdirx
From there you can perform a search starting from X:
