Is there an easy way to search the drive so I can delete them? It is a slow
process going through all the folders in the my pictures. I have tried using
the wild card
*(1).jpg and putting that in the name field, but it doesn not work.

All the pictures have names that end in (1).jpg

There is a space before the (1).jpg so a picture file may be something like
DSC02052 (1).jpg

Thanks
George
