Sorting folders by content, how?

[zaikar]

Hi. I'm just wondering how I can do that. (I'm sure there's a way with our Total Commander).

That's an example of what I'm looking for:

I've goot 1000 folders and I just want so see the ones with a txt inside or the one with a file named XXX. But I want to see just that folders for then move them to another place...

No idea how to do it...

Please help guys!

Just use the common switches
Find: *.*
Content: XXX
Advances: check what you realy want

Feed to list
Here you will have just directories with the desired content

Thanks!. I do it like that but is not what I really like cause like that you get the list of files, but then I want the list of folders that contain that files...

Or maybe I understood your answer wrong... (not english speacker sorry)

Thanks!

Yes, it's ok.

Select the directories from list and save this list (make a button with cm_SaveSelectionToFile). In this file you will have all paths, as you need.

With TC 8.0 you can search by loading this file list into search field.
