Directory search

Help & Support

Hi all,

I'm finding an odd thing when I go to search a directory. In the past you just hit ctrl-F and the search window appeared with that active directory as the search path. All good.

However now I find it seems to 'remember' some of the previous paths in the box below the 'find in' combobox. The active dir is in the combobox, but doesn't 'commit' to the list of directories to search in. And you have to click on the folder icon to manually re-add the current directory, then delete the other directories, in order to do a simple search of the directory.

I hope that made sense! Any thoughts on why this is?

Click the arrow next to the red X (next to "Find in:") and select Remove All Folders to clear the list.

Then close the Find window. Now when you open it again it should default to the current folder.

many thanks, I will give this a go!
