Searching for Files using a Question Mark (?)

                  Question mark replaces a single character or symbol. It represents only one character, so it
                  searches for single character. For example, when we type in?ia in the search box of File Explorer,
                  it will display only files or folders whose names have in as the first two characters and ia as the
                  last two characters. The ? (question mark) acts as a wildcard, representing any single character
                  in between.
                  Step 1:  Open the File Explorer and type in?ia in the search box.
                  Step 2:  The File Explorer displays the searched files and folders.

                        A computer is an electronic device capable of processing data, performing calculations,
                       storing information, and executing user-provided tasks.
                        A computer accepts input, processes data, generates output, and stores information.
                        Computers are essential for learning, healthcare, communication, business, entertainment,
                       travel, and everyday tasks like online shopping and managing devices.
                        Key  features  of  a  computer  include  speed,  efficiency,  storage,  accuracy,  automation,
                       diligence, and memory handling.
                        The computer consists of hardware (physical parts like input, processing, output, and
                       storage devices) and software (programs that control and perform tasks).
                        Devices like keyboards, mouse, touch screens, microphones, and scanners enable users
                       to provide data to the computer.
                        Tools like monitors, printers, speakers, and projectors display or produce the processed
                       results for users.
                        The Input-Process-Output (IPO) cycle transforms raw data into useful information using
                       input devices, the CPU for processing, and output devices.
                        Techniques like deleting unnecessary files, clearing temporary data, uninstalling unused
                       programs, and using tools like Disk Cleanup help optimise storage space.
                        Booting  starts  the  computer,  loading  the  OS,  and  preparing  it for  use,  while  proper
                       shutdown ensures safe closure of programs and system power-off.
