How to Find Things Faster On Your Windows PC
If you’re searching for something on your computer, especially in a folder, we will show you a faster way to find what you’re looking for.
Press the Windows Key + E to open File Explorer. If File Explorer opens Quick Access (Windows 10) or Home (Windows 11), click “This PC” in the left pane.
You’ll see a tiny search box at the top that says “Search This PC”. We’ll enlarge it for you so it’s easier to see
Type what you’re looking for in the search box.

And if you want even faster searching, check out our freeware pick, Everything Search.
