Allright 2 little things that annoy me with the search results.

Again first one might not seem a big deal, but it bugs me everytime When an item is found on a root folder, the path column will say smthg like D: where it should say D:\
I understand you might not want the extra \ when there's a folder, but I think it should be there for roots at least, to be correct.

The other thing doesn't happen all the time, I'd say it mostly happens when I run a search right after another one.
If i search for files in many drives, I usually order them from the one I think the files should be in, to the ones I think they cannot be in (but we'll search anyways just to be sure); and I expect the results to show up in the list as they're found, but it's not always the same.

Let's say I start a search in D:\ | E:\ | F:\ | G:\ and I see XY in now looking in F:\ ; I think "damn, thoose file were supposed to be in D:\ or E:\ why aren't they??"
But they are, and XY found them, but they'll only be added to the list (or at least, show up) when the search will be done. Thats quite 'disturbing' to me, especially since sometimes (I'd say, my I run my first search) items show up when they're found! I'd love it if it was that way all the time

D: where it should say D:\
---> ok, I agree

Well, that's on purpose. I designed an escalating paint update schedule here (since 20021105!). The only reason for this is speed. Works nice, but I agree, the effect you describe is disturbing. I'll see...

Well ok, I surely dont want to make XY any slower, but maybe add a refresh if changing disk and something was found or something like that then?

Slower? Never! I made it better AND faster.
Thanks for pointing me to that thing -- it bugged me, too, but the pain was below my reaction threshold.

Sweet, you're the best!
