Search syntax odd results

[jcmn]

hello

I have this search

<C:\Users\jose.nunes\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\|C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\> lnk

but I only get results from the first path. If I change the order of paths the results are always from the first path.

Is this related with the system folders configuration?

Try:

Code: Select all

C:\Users\jose.nunes\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\|C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\ lnk

OR

Code: Select all

C:\Users\jose.nunes\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\|C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\ *.lnk

What does:

Code: Select all

< \appdata\ | \programdata\ > .lnk

give you?

What version of Everything?
Do you know if the found .lnk's are hardlinks?
If they are, try Everything 1.4.0.713b Beta.

Thanks for the replies.

I have installed the last beta available so on that side I'm updated.

About your suggestions only the last one gave the correct results:

< \appdata\ | \programdata\ > .lnk

or better

< \jose.nunes\appdata\ | \programdata\ > .lnk


but this leaves me puzzled, why the complete paths don't give the correct results?

And you have checked in Menu | Tools | Options | Search | "Match path when a search term contains a path separator"

OR: operatator precedence

Correction to my earlier post: Start Menu take in quotes - "Start Menu"

Yes I have it checked.

I think the problem was in the precedence of logical operators. It should be: AND takes precedence over OR.

Check version 1.3.4.686 Portable

Check version 1.3.4.686 Portable

Don't see anything related to this in that version.
