# File Finder
This script finds any lost file in the users computer. It's meant to be a CMD/Terminal command.
## How it works
This script maps the computer looking for a specified file. When the user inputs the name (no need to be complete, it could be just part of it) and/or extension of the file, they are also asked to input the path where they want to search. There's three options:
```
- desk: Looks for the specifid file in the destkop.
- loc: Looks for the file in the entire computer.
- cus: Looks for the file in a custom path specified by the user.
```
This script is ment to be a console command. In order to do so, copy the
```
findfile.exe
```
into the System32 folder. After that, open the terminal and type
```
findfile
```
Then, the code should be executed.
The code returns the path to the file and the number of posts checked and founded.
## Example:
Example of name:
- File that we are looking for: Family.jpg
- Possible names to give to the program: family / fam / .jpg / Family / ...
## Requisites:
None
## Installing
- Download or clone the repository.
- Copy findfile.exe to System32
- Execute the terminal
- Type:
```
> findfile
```
## How to use:
- Execute the findfile command or execute the python file
- Specify the name of the file (no need to be exact) and/or the extension.
- Specify the mode (desk/loc/cus)
- Wait until the script stops running
### Works for sure on:
