How to properly match whole words filename?

Post by anmac1789 »

How do I use match whole words where it limits the search results to just "IMG_20220730_160403_869.jpg" ignoring "oOM95G4VsyyJms-xN5GIblWWBNE=IMG_20220730_160403_869.jpg". I have Search --> Match case checked, match whole words is checked and matched path is checked too but still it shows the longer filename results

What if I didn't want to use the extension, but just the filename itself?

The following should produce the same results:

IMG_20220730_160403_869*.jpg

* at the end of the extension will match things like:

IMG_20220730_160403_869.jpg.tmp
IMG_20220730_160403_869.jpg.zip
IMG_20220730_160403_869.jpg.backup
