Hi,
I think I found a bug with the search when we want to include certain directories only, both 1) relative to the search start directory, and 2) any subdirectory.
Example (search in C:\Windows\INF):
Search for:It returns no search result (should returns 2 files).
To make it returning the 2 files, I must add spaces (one or more) between the two subdirs, like the following. Sounds strange to me.
Search for:Interestingly, if I want instead to exclude the 2 files, I must not separate subdirs with space. For me, this is more natural.
Search for:The Help file does not indicate to separate subdir1 and subdir2 with space:
To include/exclude certain directories in the search, wildcards can be used in include/exclude directory names, and the names must have a trailing backslash \ . Directories can be found anywhere, or relative to the search start directory:
1. Relative to the search start directory: \subdir1\ or \subdir1\subdir2\ or \
2. Relative to any subdirectory: subdir1\ or subdir1\subdir2\ (no backslash at the start)
If you exclude a directory, all its subdirectories will be excluded too.
