Copied from the N++ bugs trackers, as donho marked it as a explorer plugin issue:
Notepad++ 5.3; Find in Files; Loses directory tracking;
How to reproduce:
1) Select folder of desired search in Explorer window.
2) Choose [Find in Files...] option from context menu or from Explorer
toolbar.
3) In appeared Find in Files dialog, Directory field remains unchanged.
Expected:
Find in Files Directory of search changes upon selecting different folder
in Explorer plugin. This worked fine in N++ 5.2
This is a missbehaviour of Notepad++ IMO. But it seems to be that this "unwanted" behaviour is removed in version RC 5.4.

It's not the fault of the explorer plugin because Light Explorer 1.8.2 has the same issue.
I really use this feature of these plugins a lot, so I'm looking forward to it working again.
Correction: LightExplorer UNICODE v2.0 plugin suffers from the same issue as the Explorer v1.8.2 plugin does.
When you select "Find in files" from the pop-up menu that appears when right-clicking a directory in the plugin windows, the "Directory" text box is not populated with the selected directory.
Deleting my configuration files did not solve the problem.
