..NET CONFIG files...
Windows Explorer (at least on W2003Server) doesn't seem to know that .config
files exist. Searching for them as .config, *.*config, *.exe.config and
other combinations, even when you can see them in a directory - let alone in
sub-directories of for those containing text - doesn't work. I've seen the
KB article on Explorer being selective in what it searches (which I think is
dumb) and even made the suggested Registry entry, all with no success. I've
also enabled seeing OS files on the off chance that would halp. Nope. I'm
sined on as Administrator on the server.
Strangely enough, if there is a readonly share set up a workstation CAN see
the files, but if the share has full permissions the WS doesn't see the files!
Suggestions, recommended tools, etc.? 3 1485
Hello
From your post, my understanding on this issue is: you are wondering why
the Windows Explorer "Search" utility in Windows 2003 cannot find any
..config file with query like '.config', '*.*config', etc.
I did a test with a web.config file. I input the query "*.config" in the
Search box of Windows 2003 Explorer, and the web.config is listed in the
search result as expected.
I hope to let you know that the issue you described appears to be a Windows
configuration related request, and would best be addressed in the Windows
newsgroups:
microsoft.publi c.windows.serve r.general
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most
qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who the newsgroups
regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction
with us. Thank you for your understanding.
Have a nice day!

In the search pane, choose the "Other search options" then "All files and
folders".

Both of you, thank you for your comments.
I agree that another venue would have been better, but in the Managed
newsgroups this was the closest. I acknowledged that in my initial post.
Thank you for the reference to one.
The search setting was certainlt tried, Andrew.
Turns out there is a Registry entry one can make for this. Explorer IS
selective about what it searches, regardless of what you set in the options.
See KB article 309173. It took rebooting the server, not just logging of and
in again, to make this work.
