The file is also locked with winzip and I cant remember the name or directory, I hid it in a very obscure directory. Could be in the windows system files could be in a program directory file. I did a search for all .CSV files I have 4-5K to go through. Any suggestions on how this could be done?

I was opening up files in batches by highlighting a bunch that pressing edit with notepad plus plus. Than going through each one. I know once the file is opened in notepad plus it will not show any words. It is pictures. I own an eCommerce site and I have my master copies that I bought $X,XXX and did not want to take any chances in them be found and resold by other people on my network. Any suggestions?

    Opening any zip file in a hex editor suggests that every zip file starts with a data of PK. We can use it in our favour. 🙂

    Download this software: EditPad Pro

    What this software does is, it recurses through the whole filesystem starting from a specified base folder to search for any string residing in any of the child files, they maybe Text or Binary, it treats them the same, thus giving accurate results.

    In our case, it’s a regex: ^PK

    When you’ll execute this search, the software will return all the files that start with data PK, make sure you do a casesensitive search.
