Here is the run down on my program
Lists all folders, subfolders, and files of X extension from a specified directory. You can view, edit, copy, etc the contents of the files. Each file has a .dat file associated with it that contains information such as keywords and last use date.
Right now I'm creating a filter. The way it should filter is take the inputted text and return any folders and files with the filter in its name, files which keywords contain and files which contents contain.
Easy enough, right?
My only problem is that it will do one of the following (based on location of File)
if folder matches
-> only lists to that folder, but not contents
if file matches
-> only lists file if its in JTree root
if file matches but is in a folder which doesnt match
-> doesnt display
I apologize if that is hard to understand. Below is functional code, copied and cleaned up from my real program. Uses apache commons 2.4

The problem lies in the filtering algorithm.
You missed out to call the filter on the subcomponents again (instead of addNodes(file) you have to call addNodes(file, filter)).
Directory nodes where only added if they match, not if subcomponents match.
A quick hack to make your code working looks like this (replace the addNodes method):
public DefaultMutableTreeNode addNodes(File dir, String filter)
throws Exception {
DefaultMutableTreeNode node = new DefaultMutableTreeNode(dir);
//true iff any subcomponent matches
boolean matchFound = false;
for (File file : dir.listFiles()) {
if (file.isDirectory()) {
if (file.getName().contains(filter)) {
matchFound = true;
}
//always call addNodes on directories, because subcomponents may match
//null return value indicates no match (with Java 8 use Optional for this)
DefaultMutableTreeNode maybeNode = addNodes(file, filter);
if(maybeNode != null) {
matchFound = true;
node.add(maybeNode);
}
} else {
// apache commons 2.4
String tmpContent = FileUtils.readFileToString(file);
if (file.getName().contains(filter)
|| tmpContent.contains(filter)) {
matchFound = true;
log("adding file: " + file.toString());
node.add(new DefaultMutableTreeNode(file));
}
}
}
//only return node if node itself or subcomponent matches
if(matchFound || dir.getName().contains(filter)) {
return node;
}
//return null otherwise
return null;
}
