So I have a bookmark setup to search my portable apps dir when I shift+alt+a:

Code: Select all

*.exe|*.lnk "C:\Users\m\MyApps" 
Works fine, been using for ages.
I just added Image Glass app in MyApps dir and now it wont find that app when searching that dir

Thought it DOES in normal search

Checking for updates says I have latest.
Using portable everything.exe and have forced index rebuild.

Thought I'd give u a heads up

Regex accidentally enabled under the search menu?

Please make sure no search options are checked under the Search menu (eg: uncheck match case, uncheck match whole words, uncheck regex)

Please make sure the Everything filter is active under the Search menu.

Please make sure these files are not excluded from Tools -> Options -> Exclude.

Please try forcing a rebuild:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Indexes tab on the left.
  • Click Force Rebuild.
  • Click OK.
