#16 Windows search not working
I am not sure if I am doing something wrong but when I type something in the search box and click the magnifying glass icon nothing happens. I get the same result on W8 and W8.1, will local and remote source folders. File names are not encrypted. I can search the underling folders with out problem.
I have the same behaviour on my Windows 7 machine. It seems like this search facility is disabled for EncFSMP mounts.
I am currently preparing the next version of EncFSMP using the latest Pismo File Mount (the file system component of EncFSMP). In this version, the EncFSMP mounts also appear under C:\Volumes, and there the searching works. That means in the next version searching will be possible!
By the way: Where the underlying files are located, or the EncFS parameters make no difference.
