Mac Finder "find" doesn't find mhtml

Hi,


I noticed even if I am in a folder with say "joe.mhtml", and search using Finder "find" doesn't find the file and any other .mhtml files. However, spotlight search can find it for me.


Is it because it is not index? How can I fix this please?

iMac 21.5", macOS 10.14

Set Finder Preferences : Advanced : When performing a search: [ Search the Current Folder ]. Now, when you use the search field in a Finder window, if there are matches, the current folder name will appear on the secondary toolbar.


Also, the following will restrict itself to filenames and not waste time on other Spotlight categories content

name:joe.mhtml
