Explore from Clipboard with limiting Filter

Post by meteorquake »

When you right-click the Folderbar title and Explore from Clipboard, it can't do so if the clipboard target is outwith the filter.
There are two distinct cases, one where you use the Ctrl-modifier to make a new tab and I think that should definitely discard the filter and become Everything if the target needs to be located that way, and I would think the same if the modifier is not held.

I will consider an option to clear the filter on 'Explore from Clipboard'.
Thank you for the suggestion.

For now, to clear the filter on a new tab:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    new
  • Select: new_tab_command_line
  • Set the value to: /filter ""
  • Click OK.
