Search files in current folder doesn't work
When I search my whole mac for e.g. "Danse Macabre" i get the results from all over the place, which is to be expected.
So when I go into the folder I get a list of files including the one I was searching for. So far so good.
While typing in a new search inside that current folder, the file list refreshes and still shows me all files in that folder, even though the search string isn' part of most of the names:
When I actually specify to only look at the actual file names, the list shows only the file including the actual string. Unintuitive but acceptable. Just pressing the enter key will still show the whole unfiltered directory.
However - and that is my real grip - when I want to find specific files, e.g. all files containing the string "cab" then this happens:
The list empties the moment I type in the third letter, which doesn't make any more sense than showing all files when typing in the first letter. And when I actually commit the search which should show me all files containing "cab" in the name, I got nothing.
This makes the search feature in finder completely useless.
What's going on?
And how do I fix it?
