Windows 7 Proper search syntax for exact and only exact match
In Windows 7 if I search for "debug"
I would expect only files and folders that are EXACTLY debug
. Which would only be extension-less files named debug, or folders.
Windows being it's ever ready "helpful" expands my results to return things like _debug
or jquery.debug.js
.
You can use the search filters with an equal sign to force the exact match.
So searching for debug
returns everything with 'debug' in any searchable meta-data,
searching for Name:debug
returns everything with 'debug' in the name,
and searching with Name:=debug
returns only the entries that are named exactly 'debug'.
