  • a search function in the Windows operating systems that allows you to search for files or folders. You can either search for the name of the file or folder or for the text contained there.
  • a specific subtree of the tree structure of the file system can be specified for the search. The search is carried out sequentially in all folders or files in the subtree in which the search is to take place. On a conventional personal computer, this leads to search times in the minute range even with relatively small amounts of data.

  • Such relationship information is also stored in tree structures in other areas of electronic data processing, eg. B. to map a networked computer system or to map a complex document which is linked to other documents or objects via so-called hyperlinks.
