Everything Version 1.5.0.1390a (x64) - Search broken link do not work anymore

Post by JDC »

Hi,


With the latest version Version 1.5.0.1390a (x64), this search does not work anymore (I get all the files … not only the broken links)

*.lnk regex:shortcut-target:(.*) !<folderexists:\1 | fileexists:\1> !"Z:\Folder\"

Thank you in advance,
And
Best Regards

Syntax looks OK to me, but there have been a lot of changes.

Does the following alternative give you the dead links?

Code: Select all

ext:lnk !exists:$shortcut-target:

You have to use $1: instead of /1 to recall regex matches.
This was changed in Version 1.5.0.1384a.
