Hi,
I am very new to this awesome search tool and is already 100% better than windows search which just never ever works.
I am using what I think is most latest Version 1.5.0.1408a (x64).
I am sure this issue is so simple and more than likely an operator error problem but I can't seem to find the solution in the forum.
I am just trying to search for a file and not return any folder only paths. Blelow is an example of what I am searching for;
abcdef File:
The results do return many files as expected but there is also alot of returns which has just matched a folder or path where the folder contains "abcdef" partly or all. I thought the function File: was supposed to just ruturn matching files only?
Any help in this simple search would be awesome, thank you.

Re: File only search returns folders
Think I have now found the issue...
In the "Search" menu, I had "Match path" ticked which I am not sure how it got ticked but now I have unticked this, it is now producing the result I was expecting.
