Action taken

Check the search definition carefully especially the following:

•	If the search paths contain meta-folders – folder names between the < and > characters (e.g. <My Documents> or <Windows> make sure they are exact and available on your computer. For more information on meta-folders click here

•	The Search Sub-directories box is checked.

•	The 'Text Search' box is not checked so that you are not unintentionally searching for specific text in a file.

•	Double-check the Paths and Patterns fields

If the dialog is fully opened, i.e. in the Advanced mode, check the following:

•	The values for the file times and sizes are what you want or, even better, set to 'Ignore'.

•	No files have been excluded in the lower left corner of the dialog.

Remember that any dialog in FileBoss which has an Advanced/Simple button can be closed up to reset all values in the advanced area to their defaults. Simple click the button twice to set these defaults.
