Certain Constant Date Months Not Working?

Post by promospad »

I recently started using dm:past(x)months to limit the number of results in Everything.
I've noticed that it works for dm:past1month, dm:past2months, dm:past3months, but not for dm:past4months (results from over 9 years ago).
The same goes for dm:past6months, 9, 11, 13, 16, 21, 23, 25, 28...and more after that.
I've been limited to using version 1.3.3.658b (x86); but is this really a problem in the software, or am I not using it correctly?

There is currently a bug in Everything when calculating date offsets from the 31st of a month.

As an example, Everything is trying to find the 31st of February. This date does not exist and causes all dates to be returned.

I will address this issue in Everything 1.5 (the next major release) -Everything 1.5 will treat the 31st of February as the 1st of March.

For now, please try searching for:
dm:past30days
dm:past60days
dm:past90days

Additionally a future date will be picked up, like, 02/01/2060.
