It appears as if the Find Files function in TC 6.01 can't find texts in archives other than "normal" (e.g. zip). I have a lot of files with the .pak extension (which is registered in TC with its packer plugin) and TC 6.01 fails to find files containing specified texts (normal ASCII).
As far as I can recall, TC6 (and 5.51) could do this. I also tried to add the .pak extension to the SearchInFiles key in the INI file but it doesn't help.
Has something changed in this logic in 6.01?

Total Commander only searches for text in packer plugins which report the search text capability. Apparently the PAK plugin doesn't do that. But there is a solution:
1. Choose configuration - edit ini files directly
2. in wincmd.ini, search for section [PackerPlugins]
3. Look for a line like this:
PAK=31,E:\VCC\pak\Debug\PACK.wcx
4. Add 128 to the value before the comma, in this case
PAK=159,E:\VCC\pak\Debug\PACK.wcx
5. Save the wincmd.ini
6. Close and re-open Total Commander
