Space is required before wildcard to get matches
Posted: Mon May 07, 2018 12:56 pm
Hi all,
I love Everything - I would be lost (and so would my files) without it.
I have just come across this strange behaviour.
I have a number of versions of a file which start with:Accounts 20170401
I cannot see them with 'Accounts 20170401*.*'
but I can with 'Accounts 20170401 *.*'
- note the space between the 1 and the first *
Is this the intended behaviour ? I would have expected reducing the fixed prefix before * always to give a larger rather than smaller set.
Screenshots attached.
