When replacing a HDD, my colleague by mistake unpacked (1) original, (2) translated, and (3) uncleaned files to a new drive without paths, where they were in no specific order automatically renamed as File-1.doc, File-2.doc, File-3.doc...
Sure, the original HDD was security-erased and returned to a company.

There're over six hundred such files, so how to select only UNCLEAN ones, which are neither original, nor finished--a WF style detecting macro, perhaps?

Install Agent Ransack. Search the files for "{" or for "{0>". Select the files in the list and copy them to a new folder.
