I guess my question is, is farr getting confused and behaving differently when the child dir is same name as parent, or is it the case that farr behaves just like any other directory but you want it to behave specially?

Yes, FARR behave differently when the child dir is the same name as the parent. If I rename the child dir to anything else FARR work as usual.

Thank you.

Steps to repro that bug :
FARR can't find items in when it is in a folder that contain a folder of the same name. If I am in c:\devel and there is a c:\devel\devel\, I won't be able to see and select anything (but c:\devel\devel - sorry for my unclear explication ).

- Create a c:\test folder
- Create a c:\test\test folder
- Create a c:\test\test\document.txt file
- Type c:\test\ in FARR (don't forget the ending \ )

=> There should be 3 entry : current folder, test, and document.txt
=> I can only see and select the c:\test\test folder
=> Pressing enter will open c:\test\test folder

the current version 2.0.78 have the bug on my two computer.

Another bug :
In the checklist box if you check with the space bar and you close then reopen the setting windows the last item check with the spacebar is not checked.

I got this issue again. I checked the different beta version that I installed and the issue begin between the 2.0.56 and the 2.0.59. The 2.0.56 don't have the issue, the 2.0.59 have the issue.

I have got another problem, FARR seem to have stopped search results in the history. It began between the version 2.0.60 and 2.0.68.

sorry for reposting this but I got no answers about these bugs and they seem pretty severe in my mind. I can repro them on two computers. Am I the only one ?

When I type fast, and hit enter, find and run does not have time to search but still launch the first result. Could it be possible to not launch the first result if it does not match the query ? Different people may have different opinions. May be, I should not type that fast, without looking for the result ?

When I change the scoring of a result to a number with a . like 100.0 or 200.0 (I test this on launch history and aliases groups ) the scoring is set to 0. Only integers works : 100 or 200 is ok.
I did not really understand how aliases are supposed to work. Should I define a group beginning with a + ? I have the v2.00.55 of FARR and may be it is broken. I did try to get a new version from my old link but it is still the 2.0.55. Do I need to ask you mouser for each new version ?

Thanks.

Considering the \ azerty issue, I used microsoft keyboard layout creator to remap the key to §. I remove some dead keys too to make the keyboard be more programmer friendly. This make working with FARR nicer.
May be its too last for queries, but could it be possible to have farr complete the path to target when a shortcut is a link to a directory ?
