-Search is too wide even with quotes

[Lu]

Need to find only bin folders
But search for the "bin" string (with quotes) returns not only bin folders but also "Databinding", "binary" and so on

Is it a bug or I use search in a wrong way. If so - how can I search for bin folders only?

Hi Lu,

Indeed Search on the General tab is a bit greedy. Use the Plugins tab and set tc.name (or fullname) = bin. If necessary you can combine this with a rule tc.directory = Yes to find only folders and no files with the same name.

Search for:

Code: Select all

bin.

When the search string contains a dot, Total Commander will look for the exact name match.

@Holger> Nice trick I used slower regex ^bin$

See here what turns exact matching on:
