How to search in directory with fullwidth slash "／"

[kesdoputr]

Hello, i'm using Everything-1.4.1.1022.x64 with Windows 10 Home 22H2 x64

I have some directory name with fullwidth slash ／
But i can't see any search result when i want to search in the directory.

Result in normal directory

Result in directory with ／

How can i make everything work on these directories?
I have tried double quote "" but seems no use, thank you.

Try turning off Search -> Match Diacritics for this search query.

I suspect this is a bug.

(@void: I'm also having trouble getting the diacritics: and !diacritics: and no-diacritics: verb to work in 1.5)

I'm on 1.5, but I would think it should "just work" in 1.4 too?
See if toggling diacritics makes any difference? (Search | Match Diacritics)

Everything is taking a shortcut here to try and match your absolute path.
However, Everything ends up failing to match the existing folder as ／is being treated as path separator.



Please try the following search:

path:startwith:"Z:\tc\AS／MR\"
(The path:startwith: overrides an absolute path lookup)

-or-

"Z:\tc\AS／MR"
(Leave the trailing slash out)

This will be fixed in Everything 1.5.

What happens?

I see there's a few issues with Everything treating ／as /, but not as a path separator.
I've made a note to remove this mapping for the next db version change.

path:startwith: seems work, thanks for your reply.
