This chapter focused on search functions and being able to search more broadly and more narrow. After using a computer for a long time, I've noticed that not all files I have created are in an easily accessible location. This makes it difficult for me to find older files that I need to revisit. Knowing correctly where and how to search allows these mistakes to be fixed with the proper search operations and filter use. Others that do not organize their files and folders definitely need to learn these operations as well, because not knowing where you file is can basically be just as bad as not having the file at all. This picture below can show how hard it would be to navigate and find files. There's just too much clutter than it makes it difficult to remember where they all are.
Another amazing topic that was taught was searching by file types. If you download your music, capture your own pictures, record your own videos, etc, searching by file types makes it very easy to find what you want. Different files may contain the same name as well, so using its' file type narrow the search even further to exactly what you need.
