FARR Plugins and Aliases / Create alias for locate32 plugin

« on: May 15, 2014, 09:19 AM »

How can I create a shortcut for a locate32 plugin search

For instance if I want this search:
loc -p z:\ -t mp4

Then how can I simplify this to lets say:
zMp4

Update.

I can get around this by creating a new link to the windows defender program and search for that instead.
It is strange though, that the original link doesn't work.

Hello there.

How do I run windows defender in windows 8.1?
FARR points to the .lnk file but fails to open?

I'm also interesting in getting FARR to open windows metro apps like new, reader and mail.

FARR is great! I'd love to see it developed further.

Interesting, but what if you want to execute a program that has a lower score than Farr's first priority?
Lets say I want to run notepad and not notepad++ which is FARR's first result.
