Windows Explorer has a simple search function - just enter a word in Search. It is also possible to use more complex searches using for example Word1 AND Word2 or Word1 NOT Word2. There are lots of other types of modified searches which may be listed somewhere - I found a few.
The problem one for me is dates, particularly for photos.
In another forum, Dates in photo metadata, I triggered a long thread (and sometimes heated debate) regarding dates and photos - created, modified, saved, those used by Windows, EXIFF, and so on. And the problem is compounded I think by Windows re-dating an image that is moved from one folder to another. To quote Leo (an author of DOPUS) "Photo metadata is a mess of standards, names, and implementations."
I am trying to identify all photos taken in 2022 so date:>01/10/22 should do it but it also finds modified dates.
Is there any definitive guide around, or separate app, for searching all the possible parameters stored with files, especially photos. The question regarding dating of files and what governs date changes seems very complicated,
