Easier way to search programs?
Is there an easier way to search programs installed on the PC with Everything? It's the one thing I still need to use Windows search for. In Everything I have to know the exact name of the exe even when using exe: .

Pressing ENTER in the search box will focus the most run result.
Consider setting a high run count for common exe files in C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86):
In Everything, search for:
*.exe "C:\Program Files\" | "C:\Program Files (x86)\" | parent:"C:\windows"
Select files you run often.
From the File menu, click Set Run Count....
Set the run count to: 1000
Click OK.
Now you only need to type in the partial exe name and press ENTER to select your most run file.
