Everything only returning whole-word matches

Post by bemymonkey »

Hi there,

first of all, thanks for the awesome search tool. I'm loving it so far.

As to my problem: I've just noticed that Everything is returning only full-word matches. If I search for "pick", it won't return "pickles". "pick*" still works, of course...

I could swear this wasn't the case until a few hours ago, and I can't remember having changed any settings.

Is this a known issue? Or was it this way all along and my brain is playing tricks on me?

-edit- Aaaaah crap, sorry for taking up your time... I seem to have hit CTRL+W by mistake (Search => Match whole word) and only checked Tools => Options for possible settings. Everything's back to normal then ;) :D

This is why I have changed Ctrl + W to close window.

Whole word is now Ctrl + B in "Everything" version 1.3.0.629b or later.
