deactivate key press search in explorer
is there a way to deactivate searching of files when we press a key in windows 7 when looking at a folder in Explorer?
in XP/ NT in the File List pane : you could quickly go to files that start with a character (or characters if you keyed them in quick)
Scenario: have a folder calls c:\docs\ open in explorer
it has 50+ files
if we know we have a file called quick.txt then you could press q and the first file starting with q would be selected.
in windows 7 it starts a search for files that has q in it and includes other locations in the search too.
is there a way to go back to the old behaviour? or can I atleast tell it only to search in the current folder, no other folders, nor sub folders?
