Hi!
I am new to Everything and love it so far! I am using Version 1.4.1.988 (x86) windows 10
However, I have not been able to figure out how to search for jpgs and pngs within a shortcut folder. Here is a snip of the Everything window I start with. I copy paste the path into the Everything search bar.
Then I simply add jpg after the path in the search and here is what it looks like when I search for "jpg"
It only found the one jpg original file. I had hoped that it would search within the shortcut folders and show me all of the jpg files within the shortcut folders.
Normally, with original folders that are not shortcut, I can see all of the jpeg/png files inside of them.
Is there another way to search within shortcut folders that I dont know?
I hope that I am being clear, please let me know if I need to add more screen snips.
Thanks so much!

Please try enabling match path from the Search menu.
-or-
use double quotes to escape spaces (without quotes space = AND)
Example searches:
pic: will expand to ext:jpg;bmp;png;gif;.. which will search for all images types.
