Is there any way of being able to copy just the text of search results when you do a search for files and folders? Obviously this would then be pasted into a text document... Are there any utilities that could do this?

The only way I know of, is to go to the command prompt and type:

cd\
dir *.pdf /s > filename.txt

The above line will create a filename.txt file of all the PDF files on the computer.
