What's the difference in results with the search terms D:\WAV and D:\WAV\

[PeterS]

Hello,

I search an external hard drive D: for all files in a folder named WAV.

Many less files and folders show up with
D:\WAV\
than with this
D:\WAV

I'm wondering how to think about the ending backslash.

What is that ending backslash doing to cause different search results than when not using the ending backslash?

Thank you.

D:\wav

will match:

d:\wav2



D:\wav\

will not match:

d:\wav2

Oh, I get it now.

D:\WAV

also shows results in a folder named D:\WAV_misc

Whereas

D:\WAV\ does not.

Thank you.
