My Wildcard with filename*.exe does not find all.

Postby alex20850 » Wed Mar 12, 2025 9:02 pm

I have 25 files on my drive that are variations of RRSETUP.EXE in several directories.
RRSETUP.EXE
RRSETUP6.EXE
RRSETUP-01.EXE
RRSETUP-02.EXE

However, BRU only finds those that are RRSETUP.EXE.

I was going upload the screenshots, but I don't know how to do that yet.

What file mask are you using, RRSETUP*.EXE in Filters (12) ?

I was using rrsetup*.exe with Regex marked.
Turning off found all the missing ones.
