Find using selected item property, like SHA-256

[rgbigel]

It is quite practical to right-click in the SHA-256 column and select "copy SHA-256".
Using this, I can enter the find: SHA-256:<Insert key press> -- I do get everything with that SHA-256.

Would it not be even nicer, if this also worked using just "find SHA-256" ? in analogy to the "copy SHA-256"?

It makes sense for other columns in a result list. It might also be a fairly simple enhancement.

In fact, but much more complicated: selecting more than 1 item in 1 column and find all of these... I'm being a glutton.

Good idea, I will consider an option to Search property...

Thank you for the suggestion.



For now, please consider a Search for sha256 context menu item for all files:

• From the Start menu, search for: regedit
• Right click Registry Editor and click Run as administrator.
• Navigate to:
  
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell
• Create a new key:
  
  Search SHA256
  
  (Can be anything you like)
• Navigate to:
  
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Search SHA256
• Create a new key:
  
  command
• Navigate to:
  
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Search SHA256\command
• Set the (default) value data to:
  
  "C:\Program Files\Everything 1.5a\Everything64.exe" -s* size:[GETSIZE:"%1"] sha256:[GET-PROPERTY:"%1","sha256"]
