Seems this feature is using FF Location instead of current location, so if the new option Auto-sync is disabled if won't really work!
I would have thought this menu only did a name search ( ?* /r ) but seems not, since that still works fine

Also, I noticed another bug that may be related to this new Auto-sync option, this statement is not true anymore it seems:

When running such a Name Search, all your current File Find settings are both ignored and left untouched

Apparently running a name search does update the Location field, which could have been unnoticed before since Auto-sync was always on.
Yet one can start a name search on another location that the current one, and then it shouldn't be updated anyways (since that's how NS are described & should be, not affecting any FF settings).

Yes, correct. There was a bug with Show All Items In Branch and I fixed it so that it now always takes the current location (not the FF location).

Your other observation is also true and remains true. For internal reasons (i.e. because I wrote like that ) the location field must contain the searched location during and right after the search; so, if Auto Sync is OFF any file find operation must update the location field. I cannot change this easily now because the code relies on this in many ways and I rather don't want to touch this now -- how long do you want to wait for CKS??

0 seconds.

Another little bug: (un)checking Auto-sync should not activate the filter Name, as it's not part of it but an option for Location, which is independent of filters.

Allright, I got another one...

The percentage of fuzziness used (found on the Options tabs of FF) used to be saved/restored in Search Templates. I'm guessing it's still saved, but it isn't restored when I load my templates anymore.

Good find! Both fixed.
