asked on
"&" searching for ampersandin a file/folder name
Hi All,
Windows XP/7/8 network with 1 server 2011.
Is there a way to search for files/folders with the & sign in their name?
My client has hit a snag where is backup/restore device using a web gui and the & sign in the titles are causing problems with navigation.
TIA
