Is there a way to find a file in my installer project ?
I have a large installer project (10,000+ files); split into tons of components.
Is there a way to find a file in that project ? (for example in the component list ?)
There is a "Find" menu item in the Edit menu; but it is always disabled.
Thanks.

In the direct editor, go to the File table. Ctrl + F, type the name, then search
If you are using dynamic file linking though they wont be in there. You will need to search the file system via windows explorer or another tool and try to determine which component has a dynamic link for the file's folder or one of it's parent folders.
