In Alt+F7 (Find Files) > Load/Save:
Up to TC 9.22a you could quickly jump to an existing entry by typing its first letters,
in TC 9.50b8 you can only use the very first letter for this.
Example:
- have some saved searches, starting with letters S, E and A (along with others, doesn't matter)
- save one setting named simply "Search"
- in Alt+F7, Tab "Load/Save", place cursor in list of saved searches
- fast type the first letters of the entry: "SEA"
TC 9.22a: entry "Search" is selected (nice)
TC 9.50b8: something starting with "A" is selected, because TC selects 3 entries, one after the other:
S - something starting with "S"
E - something starting with "E"
A - something starting with "A"
P.S.: TC 32bit on Win7 Pro x64
also on Win10 Home x64 (1803) and Win10 Pro x86 (1511)

Re: TC9.50b8 Saved file searches (Alt+F7): no quick selection by typing anymore
I can confirm this but only for 32bit TC. Also the items in the list of searches are not sorted alphabeticallly anymore in 32bit TC.
The bug occurs the first time in TC 9.5b7.

Thanks, the two problems are actually related (the first is caused by the second).

Confirmed fixed in TC 9.5b911.12.19 Fixed: Find files - Load/Save: The list was no longer sorted alphabetically, and therefore had reduced quick search (32)
