Wildcards in regular expression in directory paths for search/find?

Question

This should be really simple. This directory C:/ Users/matt/Documents/*/xyz123 should match any directory in C:/ Users/matt/Documents/ "that contains a sub-directory" called xyz123.

Answer 1

Assuming that you can access files in the format given, and this is standard regular expression syntax, then you need a . before the *, as in:

C:/ Users/matt/Documents/.*/xyz123

* just means 0 or more of the preceding.
. stands for any character except for the new-line character
