You can use the "DIR file_name /S" command to find files with partial file name.

"file_name" - Specifies the file name you are looking for. "?" and "*" wildcard characters are supported.
"/A-D" option - Tells Windows to not display entries with the "D (Directory or folder)" Attribute.
"/S" option - Tells Windows to display entries in sub-directories recursively.

For example, if you are looking for the location of a Word document of your old resume, on your computer, you can use these command:

C:\>cd \

C:\>dir *resume* /A-D /S

 C:\...\System-Analyst
