Hi: I am a relatively new user and am having problems.
1. In order to try to understand how FARR searches, I switched off all the virtual folders except %FARRDIR%\scripts. I then searched for 'excel'. It returns one item: C:\Program Files (x86)\FindAndRunRobot\scripts\Control Panel (cpanel)\Printers and Faxes (cpanel).lnk. Nowhere in that path is the string 'excel'. Why did it find this?
2. In order to try to understand how FARR searches, I switched off all the virtual folders except %COMMONSTARTMENU%. Again, I used FARR to try to find excel. This time it did find a shortcut to Excel, but it also found this path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe and this folder C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Utilities\Text Utils - Compare, Split. Nowhere in that path or in the folder can I find the string 'excel'. Why did it find this?
Any help you can provide would be appreciated. It is difficult to set up these virtual folders when they do not find what you are searching for!
Another question: FARR sometime will find 30+ entries. It will display only a few of them. Is it possible to scroll thru the entire list?
