SUMMARY
In the Find File feature of the applications listed at the beginning of this article, you cannot specify the Desktop Folder as the only folder in which to search for your files.



MORE INFORMATION
When you use Find File, you can search specified folders on both your hard disk and on network drives for files meeting specific criteria. However, you cannot specify the Desktop Folder as the only folder in which to search for your files. Note that if you specify your hard disk as the location to search, Find File does search your Desktop Folder (as well as all other folders on your hard disk) and will report any files in your Desktop Folder that meet the specified criteria.
