Yes, it is the same as if you press "Ctrl+Shift+F".  You can change the search directorybut it does not change the default directory. If you close and open once again the old directory path reapears. Meanwhile it is no more problem because KFind searches within the directory you are already in.
But the simply search function "Ctrl+F" seems not to work. It recognises neither full file names nor patterns as "filename".
