I tried to search for a file on my computer the other day using windows search.
Was absolutely incapable of doing it. Maybe if it walked away for a few hours it would have eventually found the file, but I didn’t have that sort of time.
It would be nice if Microsoft could make sure the features it currently has, actually work, before trying to add a bunch of stuff no one was asking for.
Power Toys has a Search feature that works like Mac Finder… And it works as you’d expect it. I’ve largely started using that over the standard windows search, and the difference is hitting win + space instead of win before typing my search.

What’s the point of even searching I’d you can’t grep?
