Best Answer

It varies slightly depending on the version of windows you are using.

The basic steps are to use the 'wildcard' expression '*' (no quotation marks) in the search window of Windows explorer.

Ensure that all drives and folders are selected.

There are certain defaults for size and date, usually 'Any'. Leave this as is.

In the 'File Name' box type; "*.doc" (no quotation marks)

This should return the results required.
