Hello. I have been looking for a similar batch and could not find one that works for me.
My problem is simple. I need a batch that would search all hard-drives for multiple files that contain in their filename some words (eg word1, word2, word3 - and it would find even the filenames named lets say word1111). The extension of the filenames does not matter (this includes also folders). After it finished searching it will copy all the results to a usb flash drive (from which I'm running the batch).
I need this because I have to copy some documents (pdf, ppt, doc, txt) from some pc in a short period of time, otherwise I would use the classic Windows search.
