Whether the search in folders only was intended or not intended - I like the option (if it is possible to keep). I used this this past week to locate a file. I wasn't sure of the file name - and I didn't want to wait for it look through contents of files - so I used FileSeek to find only the folder (I knew part of the folder name). Very quick results and I used "Open Folder" and there was the file.

Thanks,

Kevin ]]> https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/search-for-folder-names-bug/?ID=d86feda2-9135-49bf-b2bd-97c663600f4b#2 Thu, 13 Aug 2009 16:02:11 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/View/search-for-folder-names-bug/?ID=d86feda2-9135-49bf-b2bd-97c663600f4b#2 FileSeek Sorry, this looks like a bug in 1.8.1. I'll have it fixed in the next version.

Thank you.

Could you provide more info on how the folder search works?

If I include "lightroom" without the quotes in the Include field and Exclude is empty and Query is empty and Show folder name matches is checked, should I see folders that contain "lightroom" in their name in the results?

How about "*lightroom*.*"?.

In either case, I don't.

I do get folder results if "lightroom" is included in the Query field and the Include field. This combination appears to only return folder results, which is kind of cool if you are looking for folders only.

Thank you,
