How to Export File Search Results to Excel


1. Click on the 'Windows' button in the lower left-hand corner of your computer screen. Type in the file name or phrase you want to find. The results will appear in a separate window.
2. Press 'Control' and 'A' at the same time. This selects the results. Next, press 'Shift' and right-click your mouse at the same time. This will open a dialog box.
3. Select 'Copy as Path' from the dialog box. Open Microsoft Excel. Press 'Control' and 'V' at the same time to paste your results in the spreadsheet.
4. Try one of several dozen software options, such as Power File Search, Agent Ransack or SysExporter. Many of these have limited, trial versions that will let you test the software before buying it.
