Every time I use the Search Documents feature in upper right corner of the legacy Open dialog (I hate Backstage) it resets the default file location to the Documents folder which is one folder up, which I see the next time I open the dialog. I have the default Word file save location set to a folder titled Microsoft Word inside the Documents folder. The first time I use Search, it starts in the correct folder, but the next time I open the Open dialog it’s changed to the Documents folder. Can I do anything about this?
I am pretty sure it's the Windows search baked into the Word Open dialog that’s overriding Word and I want it to stop. It means the next time I search for Word documents from Word it shows a long list of other file types and I have to reset the search location to my Microsoft Word documents folder.
I really, really miss the old dedicated Word XP (2002) Find File and really hate Advanced Query Syntax. I know xplorer² can do an excellent job finding Word files, especially complex searches, but I’m always dealing with which search requires the least number of clicks and typing to find what I want.
Today was my birthday and every year on my birthday I watch the scifi movie Kronos because it’s a childhood favorite of mine and makes me feel 10 years old again. It’s also the source of my robot avatar.
