Find files that have recently changed
In Windows 8, given a specific path, how can I find all the files that have recently changed?
It used to be relatively easy in versions prior to Windows 7.
This is as close as I got:
- Open the specific path in Windows Explorer
- Click inside the Search edit-box on the top-right corner
- Open the Search menu that appears on the top ribbon
- Click the Date Modified drop-list and choose the Today option
This is not good enough, because I need to find all the files that have changed in the last hour or so.
After performing the sequence described above, the text datemodified:today appears in the edit-box. If I click it, then I can select a specific date or date-range, but this is still not good enough.
I need to specify time, so that it finds all the files that have changed between that point in time and now.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Try something like
datemodified:>9/30/2014 9:30pm
or
datemodified:>9/30/2014 11:28am datemodified:<9/30/2014 11:30am
More switches in the Advanced Query Syntax article.
