When using Everything search, can I search for folder names? The current search can only retrieve the file name, and there is no option in the settings that can change.
Any text you type should search both the path and filename. But to limit to folders you can use
folder:yourtext
Here is a reference:
It is possible. If you want to search, for example, for a folder named 'VM'
you can use
Find CLEAR QUERYENGINE=everythingglobal QUERY Folders: VM
You can make a template (in an Opus button) leaving out your search term, like
'Find CLEAR QUERYENGINE=everythingglobal QUERY Folders: '
You will need a space before your search term.
I saw your post, Indy. Just added the syntax which works in the Opus search.
And - you're right - we can use the search box, too. I almost forgot that, because i use my assigned search key for that.
Thank you! I know why I couldn't find it, because the folder I was searching for was in NAS, and I mounted it on my computer using SMB. And Everything don't search for it by default, so I cannot find the content.
I added the folders to Options-Indexes-Folders in Everything and the problem was resolved.
