    Inside File Manager, is there a way to search and show all *.html files? The search function is not showing any results at the moment using "*.html" without quotes.

    The search is performing a regex search against your search, not a Microsoft Windows(R) file search. Searching for ".html" will work better.

    Perform an internet search for Perl Regex or Perl Regular Expressions for more details on the powerful searches you can perform with this tool.

    Using ".html" without quotes also brings up .shtml files too. Is there a way to just list files that end in .html?

    Yes, use the following regex:

    Code:
    \.html
    The \ will ensure that . is not interpreted as an operator but rather as a literal period.
