Hello,

I am unable to search in shared box folders using Windows Explorer. Only returns results for files or folders in the current view/open folder.

There is not problem with Windows Explorer itself. Working correct on my Local Folders. Indexing redone recently.

I have scrolled and found the file I'm looking for since I knew what folder it was in but even though I typed the file name exact, it does not appear in search.

Thank you,

Dirk
