  1. Search for files by size?


    I used to be able to click on the search field at the top of a folder window and it would let me select file size, but it's not there anymore.

    How can I search for files by size? My C drive is getting full and I think I have some large files somewhere that I can move to another drive.

    Thanks

  4. Search for files by size?

    Windows 10 Update 1909 file explorer "size" Search No longer works!

    Hi,

    I understand, I share a suggestion from an advisor, which is: write the approximate size in the search box, the text should be adjusted in blue, then you can see and choose the size of the document in the list. Thanks to the advisor for the idea.

    Regards
