I'm trying to search for any folders or files that contain a question mark '?' in the name anywhere. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to use hex? I tried searching the help and form but couldn't find my answer...probably user error... I'd like to search a folder on the NAS with 11,000 sub-folders containing 84,000 files.
Simple? Thanks in advance for any guidance!!

Re: Search for a '?'
Is it possible it's not working because they seem to be showing upside down?

Re: Search for a '?'
Do I need any special qualifiers for that character in that case or is it a simple search? Thanks again for the help!void wrote: Thu Dec 14, 2023 11:52 pm Please try including the following in your search:

Re: Search for a '?'
No qualifiers required, just include ¿ in your search.
Another method to search for ? is to use the unicode Fullwidth Question Mark: ？
