thank you, but i'm familiar with this command and it work well if you have the full path of the folder where the mp3's is located, but i need a command that when i want to search a complete hdd for mp3 files, it must search all folders and sub-folders on that hdd and list it in ListBox. Also if i search within a Folder that has 50 sub-folders, it must search only that folder and all sub-folders and list it.
Hope i explained it right : )

You might not be able to get there from here ...
a) it will take a long (very long) time to scan your entire hdd; I tried using these (DOS) commands (which process much faster than Neo script ones)...
cd c:\ dir *.pdf /b /s... after about 30 seconds, it was still processing and I gave up.
b) not sure how many mp3 files you were expecting to be found, but most likely that number will exceed the maximum number of items you can have in a ListBox

zmFunctions pluginIt is better, of course, to create selected folders and search in them. Searching the entire disk will take a long time.
You can, of course, search in asynchronous mode and use a subroutine. ;)

For example, on a 50 GB C disk it found only 3 mp3 files in 14 seconds.
On D with a volume of 100 GB (65 free, t.35 GB) in 672 mls found 1939 files. All fit.
It is necessary to try. Perhaps the devil is not as terrible as he is painted.:)

Besides, it is not the total space but the number of file entries to check that determines time to respond.
672 ms sounds fast enough ... if this is for personal use, waiting 14 seconds is ok, but if it is for client use, it may not be (especially if they have much larger HD/files to scan).
found 1939 files. All fit.
If, as I am assuming that, the ListBox was able to show 1939 files, that is good to know.

I have two of them. One for 160, the other for 320 GB. Ancient as a mammoth. Enough for me. They still work and that's fine.
I expressed myself incorrectly. Not disk C, partition C. In our conversation, disk, partition have the same meaning.

Yes, I got it right. ListBox showed 1939 entries.

I noticed another interesting thing.
I started searching on another disk in the system partition (I have two systems on different disks).
Searched for 160 seconds. Found 2 files.
Repeated search was reduced to 22 seconds. Apparently, the first search indexes files.This plugin has the ability to asynchronously search in a separate thread. That is, you can continue working with the application (it will not be in a suspended state), and upon completion of the search, if desired, the subroutine will be executed and the result will be displayed.
