Bug: directory search result vanishes if you create a shortcut to it
Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2019 7:15 pm
running up to date: Search Everything v1.4.1.877 (x64)
Organizing some photos, I was using SE to find some matching directories:
SearchString: 2018|2019 e:\album\photos !PhotosFromOthers scouts attrib:d
Then I'd drag one of the found directories to a NON-MATCHING destination, and create a SHORTCUT there.
The source directory immediately vanished from the search results. (I verified it still remained on the disk)
I then closed SE and re-opened, and pasted in the exact same search string (as above) and the missing directories returned.
This would happen both if I did the dragging-and-shortcut-creation from SE, or from a Windows Explorer window.
Repeatable.
