Fields

Deep 1

Perform a deep enumeration of the folder contents. Windows traverses through subfolders to discover content and presents the results in a single list that combines all discovered content.

Shallow 0

Perform a shallow enumeration of the folder being queried. Only the top-level, child files and folders of the folder being queried will be returned. This is similar to the view that Windows Explorer would provide for the folder being queried.
