Unable to find filemaker files

[waveloom]

Hello, i am asking to help, when i search filemaker files using Everything, they are not found.

Migrated today all my works and for the first time tryin to find the files i need, i've seen everything didnt find any on them, so i was really scared.. for a moment i thought i lost all my database works during restore, but then.. i realized that everything wasnt finding them

I need help, maybe there is a configuration i am missing? Format is FIlemaker 12 files, extension is .fmp12

I added a couple of example images.

It seems that you set filter to "Document" (look at low right corner of Everything window (your second image)), set filter to "Everything" via Search Menu

Why should Everything find any file if you search for the name "archive"
None of the files in your first screenshot has such a name.

You enabled the Document Filter ( Menu:Search > Document )
Out of the box, FileMaker Pro files are not seen as a document.

You can switch to the Everything filter and search for ext:fmp12 archive or add fmp12 files to the list of documents:
- Go to Menu:Search > Organize Filters
- Double-click the Document filter
- Add fmp12 to the Search field
- Save changes


(I should learn to type faster; 2 people already answered your question while I was typing mine ... )

The very first one does?

You are right (as most of the time)
