Quick Search getting removed after refresh

Post by jaywalker32 »

Quick Search using /L or /T gets reset when refreshing after changing tab. Refreshing works fine if you don't change tabs tho.

To reproduce:
1. Do the following quick search in the address bar: This PC?Red /L
2. Refresh (to see that it works)
3. Change to another tab and change back to the QS tab
4. Refresh

Expected: Quick search repeats, updating the results

Actual: Address bar gets reset to "This PC" and quick search parameters are lost.

A funny case.

First of all Refresh (F5) is not supposed to refresh a Quick Search. For this you should use Edit | Repeat Last Quick Search (Shift+F3). So it's actually a bug that F5 refreshes a Quick Search when it's done in "This PC". I will fix this.

Second:

Oh, I see. I just assumed since it worked before the tab switch.

But yes, the Shift+F3 way works, so I'll just switch it via a script when necessary.
