mention the type of file, type

Searching files/folders using a question mark(?)
Question mark replaces a single character or symbol in the search string. It represents only one
character. For example, when we type C?M in the search box of the File Explorer, it will display
only files or folders whose names has three characters, of which two characters are C and M
(anywhere in the file name). We can also use the question mark as a wildcard more than once in
a search string.
i + USING MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS
When we work on a computer, we might need to work on more than one file at a time or open
more than one application at a time. For example, while working on a Word file, we would be
using Google to search for information and PowerPoint for making the presentation. If we need
some images for the presentation, we need to have the image folder opened in File Explorer as
well.
