How can I make quickfilter keep my previous marking / selection ?

Hi


I use quickfilter to mark ( select ) files frequently , here is an example :

• Use quickfilter to make the panel list show all the desired items
• Press Ctrl + Num_+ to select all the files in the panel
• Press Esc to go back to the original view

Now I have a bunch of files marked , but then I noticed that I missed some files , and I use quickfilter again to locate these files and press Ctrl + Num_+ again ; but my previous mark disappeared .

If it can keep my last selection then quickfilter will be a better marking tools compare to Expand / Shrink selection etc , because it is faster .

And : is it possible to make the Expand / Shrink selection using Everything.exe ?

Files which are hidden lose their selection, otherwise you may have a filter active which shows one selected file, and then when you try to delete it it would delete a bunch of not displayed files - very dangerous.
Just press Ctrl+S twice to disable filtering, and search for the file you want to also select.

And : is it possible to make the Expand / Shrink selection using Everything.exe ?

How? It only selects files which are already displayed, so there is no need to find anything on disk.
