The date command does not work, I completely do not know how to find immediately files with a creation date of September 24 with a partial folder name “cd” and range numer:
Example:
*.mp3 created:2023-09-24 cd regex:\b(473|474|475|476|477|478)\b
The date command does not work + other

Re: The date command does not work + other
does *.mp3 return mp3 files?
does dc:2023-09-24 return files/dirs dated 9-24-2023?
does cd return files/dirs containing cd?
does regex:\b(473|474|475|476|477|478)\b return files/dirs bound by 473..478?
Now, which part(s) of the above fails to meet all the criteria?
If you want folder "cd", you can use,.
does folder:CD return expected folders?
The date created should be correct, dc:2023-09-24 (unless you were actually after the year, 2024
).
(You have 2023 in the OP, & 2024 in the screenshot.)

Re: The date command does not work + other
It just doesn't work if I try to combine many different expressions together.
If single expressions it will work. Never, ever does a search work if it uses interleaved combinations of expressions!
So since I've been using Everything (about 10 years, I think) I've only had to sort by date!
There are no special explanations of how the expressions are combined, it seems more complicated in this tool than I thought.
In Master Seeker was, is and always is very, but it is very easy,is always best(!) but it does not support searching by creation date, only modifications!
MasterSeeker is many times simpler than Everytning and you don't have to enter anything special to find something, but in Everything often it all fails.
Path is often with Chinese characters, so I try only with partial matches (English letters, numbers), because I do not know Chinese.
It doesn't find the correct folders, regardless of the date, it never finds anything correctly if I type in multiple expressions.

You may need to enable Path (or add path: to your search).

Re: The date command does not work + other
The path must be written in quotation marks.
Example:
dc:2024-09-19..2024-09-24 path:"H:\CD 2024\" *.mp3 electro
Example:
dc:2024-09-19..2024-09-24 path:"H:\CD 2024\" *.mp3 electro
