Searches with two words misses files with a period in-between

Post by YaSo »

I recently rebuilt my indexes a few weeks ago after losing a drive on my home server, and I found that Everything still gave search results to files that were no longer there.

Previously, I could look for a file named "Raging.Bull.1980.mp4" by typing "Raging Bull" as two words separated by a space. Now I get no results if I use a space, but it shows up if I type it in with a period in-between. (Raging.Bull)

Did I screw up something in Everything? I am using version 1.4.1.1032 (x64). Thanks in advance.

See if you might have inadvertently enabled Regular Expressions,
Search -> Regular Expressions

I'm an idiot with little sleep, I had Search -> Match Whole Word checked. Unchecking that fixed it, thanks!
