C programming with files and directories

[JC724]

I have a curiosity question. Is there a way in the C programming language to navigate to different directories and find files?

Any ideas/advice on how to do this in Windows and Linux?

Of course there is. Almost all operating systems have at least basic file browsing capability, and a great many of them were built with C and it's derivatives.
