Wildcard doesn't work

Post by cadsite »

I received a new PC and installed everything.
When I search, it all works, except, a wildcard is not possible after other signs.
The moment I type a "*" after an other letter, I have no results.

Is this a known issue?

Please try the following:

Uncheck Match Path from the Search menu.

-or-

Disable Match whole filename when using wildcards:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Search tab on the left.
  • Uncheck Match whole filename when using wildcards.
  • Click OK.
