Search Shortcuts

Post by Michael_88 »

Hello,

I am trying to set up a keyboard shortcut that allows me to search within the contents of files specifically in the following path:

C:\Users\VirtualOffice\Downloads\

For instance, I would like to press CTRL+Q and have Everything automatically input the search string:

C:\Users\VirtualOffice\Downloads\ content:"

Could you please advise on how I can configure this?

Thank you

You'll need Everything 1.5.

Create the following bookmark (Bookmarks -> Add to bookmarks):
Name:
Insert content:

Search:
/command 41157

Keyboard Shortcut:
Ctrl + Q

Yes, try with your search to limit to the specific folder.
