Yes, that's it - it works perfectly. Thanks very much, it makes a real difference for my work.

Yes, my Properties box looks ike that, but when I select text and then click the button, all I get is a Firefox page that says: The address wasn’t understood Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (es) isn’t associated with any program or is not allowed...

Thanks Not Null, but I don't understand what I am supposed to do with :

Enter
Code: Select all

Abandoning reasoning, I tried simply comparing the Options on the two PCs. Enabling: UI - Focus search on activate fixed my problem. As to the ability to drag and drop Firefox TEXT into the Search Bar, I tried /search_edit_drag_accept_files=1 - but it had no effect. Isn’t that just for dragging file...

It worked great and I’d sure like to go back to that functionality.

Before Updating, this expression resulted in a list of all bmp OR jpg files containing kim in the name.

This makes OR useless. How can I go back to making OR work as before the update?

After Update, OR no longer works.
