Mine finds just one.
So I created a shortcut to Excel.exe. Now it finds two! This could be your
problem.

The following code gives a found files count of 3 where only 1 file
exists.
set fs = Application.FileSearch
With fs
.NewSearch
.FileName = "EXCEL.exe"
.LookIn = "C:\Program Files"
.SearchSubFolders = True
.MatchTextExactly = True
.FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles
End With
fs.Execute

For r = 1 To fs.FoundFiles.Count
MsgBox fs.FoundFiles(r)
Next r


The MsgBox refers to the same file each time "C:\Program
Files\Micrsoft Office\Office\EXCEL.exe"

Any thoughts on how to refine the code to give the expected answer?
