Basic Wildcard Search No Longer Working?

Post by SP5i7Guy »

Have been using XYP for years, love the product. But it seems as if the basic wildcard search no longer finds what it used to.

For example, I used to search for *2277* which would find any file (under the folder I selected) that contained “2277” anywhere in the file name. Now it doesn't. Am I missing something obvious? Is it possible that my C: drive name is too long?

The attached file shows my settings and the ‘this view is empty’ message, even though the file is clearly there.

Thanks in advance for any guidance you could provide.
