I searched for a photo that I know the name of in Bridge search. I have found the image but what I would like to know is how do I find which folder that it is stored in? My folders are organized as such, they are under my hard drive letter C: then a pictures folder then most of them are within dated folders (eg.2017Aug13) When I found this photo it showed that it was in my pictures folder but does not show the dated folder. Im trying to find which dated folder its in. Thanks

    There may be better ways, however my first thought is to show the path bar:

    Then perform your search…

    Finally, contextual click on the image and select the “Reveal in Bridge” (or Reveal in Finder/Explorer) command:

    Which will show the path:

    Another option could be a custom Inspector Panel script…
