Hello, so I need to search a huge tree of folders, and find all folders with a certain name which are subfolders of folders with another name.
For instance, let's say I want to find all folders named "zorro" which are direct subfolders of folders named "garcia", like ...\garcia\zorro\...
I have tried to search for paths containing garcia\zorro, but it doesn't work. Actually, it doesn't work if I search for paths containing simply zorro either, so I probably don't know what I'm doing here.
Any help? Thanks.

Sounds easy using TCs Everything integration, so try:
ev:folder:garcia\zorro
ev:folder:garcia\zorro

Re: Search for particular folder with subfolder
I know nothing about Everything. So, I installed the software.
Do I check the "Everything" box and insert the string in the normal TC search form? If so, it found nothing.

Ok, I've made it work. I had to open Everything before starting the search, for some reason.
What if I only want to find paths which end with garcia\zorro?

This is also possible with TC search: tab Plugins, set to Note that this only works when there are files present in this directory.

Code: Select all
tc | path | contains | garcia\zorro
