Using the Search feature in Files sectionNot the best at a written explanation but, after clicking on PC Files, there is a search window at the top. You can search by the poster's name, or word in file name, etc. I am not sure if you can use boolean or implied boolean characters. You can use the * if you know part of the name though.
ie: if you're looking for Bridal info, it may have a name with Brides rather than Bridal or Bride. Therefore, do a search with Brid* to pull any that begin with those four letters.
Gosh, I hope this makes sense!
My best suggestion is to find a post burried in a thread somewhere. Then practice alternative ways to search for it.
