I came across this tip yesterday. You can specify a file using wildcards and then use TAB auto-completion in a Windows command shell.
For instance:
If you are working at the Windows cmd shell and want to edit a .txt file (for instance), type
notepad *.txt
You can now press the TAB key until you see the file you want.
This works with more complex wildcards to such as p*.t* and with network shares too.
