search all files for a word (maybe a simple answer) I hope

[calamity]

is there any program that would search all files in a directory for any files containing  a particular word

 

like say I wanted to find  what files have the word "DZAI_dynAISpawns"

 

it would search all my files for the word DZAI_dynAISpawns

 

I remember long ago I could serach any text file for a word and it would list  all the files with that word in it .

Notepad++ has this feature.

Notepad++ has this feature.

I figured it did but I cant see how, without actually opening the file and cclicking search or the binocs..

how do I  ask it to search unopened files ???

 

 

I figured out how to add extensions to widows search  Indexing, and its working now. however I would love to know how with notepad ++

With Notepad++ you'd need to open all relevant files. Hit CTR+F then use 'Find all in all opened documents.'. There is no way to search through unopened files.

CTRL + F --> Search in files --> Search for: "YOUR SEARCH", Replace with: "Keep blank", Filters: "Keep blank",Folder: The folder where you want to search (DZMS folder).
