How to search for a specific word in the entire game?
I need help with finding a specific word in all the objects inside my game, counting Models, Scripts, TextLabels and et cetera. I would like to know if there is a script that could help me doing this.
Not telling for anybody to script it for me, but I would like to know if there is indeed something about this on where I can do it.
(ps. This means mostly that I want to check inside the properties if it ends up being in TextLabels and alike.)

Yes, I have tried CTRL + Shift + F and CTRL + Shift + X, so I am resorting to scripts in case there is no other way to do it. ThKSO 0 — 3y

For workspace you could use:
for _, element in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
if element.Name == "something" then
print("found")
end
--use something like this to check in textlabels
if element:IsA("TextLabel") then
if element.Text == "something" then
print("found in textlabel")
end
end
end
This will however not check the properties, except text labels text. You may need to add more checks like the one for TextLabel I provided. Similar script should be done for playergui. And for search inside scripts, you can use SearchAll option.
