FIND a filename with embedded spaces

Windows FIND does a terrible job of locating filenames that have embedded spaces. Putting the name in quotes ("The Way we Were") doesn't work. Try it. You'll see. Note, however, that searching for a string with embedded spaces in the TEXT of a file does work. [Strange]
Anyhow, the secrect is to replace the spaces in a filename with question marks.
Note also that you don't need to use capital letters.

You can also use the DOS DIR command and
enclose long filenames (with spaces) in quotes.

Open a DOS box, then type:

cd\

Press the ENTER key.

type this (using your filename):

dir /s "your filename goes here"

Press the ENTER key.

This will locate and display the path to your file.
Typing the "cd\" command gets you to the root
of the drive where the command will search all
directories (folders) and subdirectories. Also
handy for finding duplicate files.

If you have more than one drive, or if you wish to
search a CDROM or floppy, do this first in the
DOS box:

Type the drive letter with a colon like this:

d:

Press the ENTER key.

This gets you to the drive you prefer, where
you can use the "cd\" and "dir /s" commands.
