How to Search For a File in Ubuntu 22.04 or 20.04 Terminal
Seach files using the ‘find’ Command
The ‘find’ command is by default available on all Ubuntu Linux systems to search for files directly in the terminal. We can even define different criteria such as name, type, size, and modification time.
To use it either switch to the directory where the file you want to search is located or declare the path where you want the “find” command to search for it.
For example:
To search in the current directory
find -name you-file-name
