Searching selected folders.

[Frank Martin]

Can I search just selected folders for lost files.

I went to Explorer in XP and on the right-hand side selected
folders (ctrl click) which might contain lost picture files
(thereby avoiding the folders with vast number of known
files), but when I selected "search" nothing happened.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks, it works if I select just one folder but not if I
select more than one.
