As the reliance on computers increases, so will the volume of data and information stored in them. Storing of data and information on the computer is not a difficult task, but what is more daunting is searching for the file that you have stored. Currently on a Windows Operating System File Search method, users are able to search for a file and the results are displayed immediately with no structure. A prototype was built in this research to enable users to search a file based on its contents followed by a recommendation to display results via tree diagram for returned search results. It was found that search result that is visually displayed via tree diagram offered users a visual representation of where the relative location of the file is stored. Future work should enhance the ability of the tree diagram display to be interactive. © 2012 Newswood Limited.
