windows explorer is too clever

Hi

Is there any way to exclude zip file contents in a search.
I am trying to delete loads of .bak files I have so I have done a search of
all the directories for *.bak.
Unfortunately the search also lists all the .bak files in the many zip files
I have which I dont want to delete.
This is really annoying.

Thanks

Nick

This is best done in a Command Prompt:
- Click Start / Run / cmd {Enter}
- cd /d c:\
- Type: dir *.bak /s /p
This will give you a list of all .bak files. Go to the next
step if you're happy with what you see.
- Type: del /s *.bak
