More Information
Summary:A unified search and browse experience may be provided by combining filters that are based on folder location with filters that are based on search criteria. In one example, a user opens a file explorer program and is presented with an initial set of filters. Some of the filters may be folder names, and other filters may be search queries. The user chooses a filter, and then continues to refine the set of files that he or she is looking for by successively selecting new filters and/or typing new filters free-form. The new filters may be folder names or search criteria. The system may suggest new filters based on analysis of files and/or past user behavior. A filter chain records the user's history of having added filters, and the user may add, delete, or replace filters in the chain.
