What is a CANNEDSEARCH file? A CANNEDSEARCH folder is a folder used by Finder, an OS X program that allows users to organize and search files on their computer. It contains search values which enables a user to save common searches in order to decrease query times. CANNEDSEARCH folders are similar to .SAVEDSEARCH files.
More Information CANNEDSEARCH folders are referenced by Finder for searching the contents of a computer, which includes applications, folders, and files.
