I want to find all jpeg files with a creation date between 1st January 2017 and 30th April 2017. However neither of these works:
dc:>01jan2017 dc:<30april2017 *.jpg
dc:>01jan2017 AND dc:<30april2017 *.jpg
Can someone kindly advise what the correct syntax should be.

Re: Syntax for date range
Copied from VoidTools help page
Find files and folders created from the 1st August 2014 to 31st August 2014:
dc:1/8/2014-31/8/2014
or:
dc:8/1/2014-8/31/2014
Depending on your locale settings.

Re: Syntax for date range
Using month names will work in the next version of Everything.
For now, you will need to specify the month as a number, eg:
dc:1/1/2017..30/4/2017 *.jpg
or, alternatively, iso8601 format:
dc:20170101..20170430 *.jpg

Re: Syntax for date range
Does it have any effect if only .jpg is used instead of *.jpg?

Re: Syntax for date range
Yes, .jpg searches for both files with jpg as extension and also names of files with .jpg in its name. (For e.g. It also lists something.jpg.part)
But *.jpg only search for files with jpg as extension.
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
