  • Search folders for specific creation time

    I have a share where I would like to search for a certain folder to see it's creation time.

    Normally I can rightclick that share in Hyena and hereby use the standard Windows searching for this. But now I need a report over this so is there any way Hyena could do this?

    I've tried selecting the share in Hyena and using the filter but the problem is that the folders I'm looking for is in subfolders so I can't find what I want.

    Is it possible?

    Exporter Pro can do this for you. Select the computer in Hyena, then go to Tools->Exporter Pro->Export Selected Objects. Click the Settings button then double-click on File/Directory. Create a template and specify the directory you are looking for.

      I'm in doubt how I make a search for a folder - not a file. This is what I've tried to do:

      This I would think would eksport all the folders and location on "home1" share that had the "Nethood" name. The text file I'm getting I can't seem to find anything related to that and I know there are folders with that name on the share.

        Check the box to Output Directory Information only, then run it again and see what you get.

          It's still the same. This is what I've done:

          1. Selected the server under "Servers" under my domain.
          2. Then Tools->Exporter Pro->Export Selected Objects and Settings.
          3. Made the template like the screen shot I've provided - and ticked the Output Directory Information only.

          Under Shared Directory Paths I entered the sharename - just like I can see under Shares if look at the server in the left tree listing. And it's set to search all subdirectories.

          Under File Name Filters I enter the folder name like shown - but this is a folder and not a file.

          The outcome is this: http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/7665/fs016yk.jpg

          If I do a search for the NetHood folder through the Windows search I get one folder. I would have expected the Hyena export to show the same.

            Edit your template and click the Customize Output Columns button. See if Dir Files(bytes) is in the Current Output Fields window. If it is, remove it, then run your export again.
