Description grofaty 2024-08-31 12:17:11 UTC
SUMMARY
Search in current folder and subfolders (CTRL+F) and current directory only (CTRL+I) does not return any files.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press CTRL+F for search for files in current folder and subfolders or CTRL+I to search only in current folder.
2. Type in search string e.g. test  (and there is file test.txt).

OBSERVED RESULT
No files are found.

EXPECTED RESULT
Files should be found.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 11
Dolphin 24.08 downloaded from https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/system/dolphin/release-24.08/windows/dolphin-release_24.08-4581-windows-cl-msvc2022-x86_64.exe (released yesterday, 2024-08-30).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Up till today I have been using Dolphin version 24.07.70 on Windows 11 downloaded from
https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/system/dolphin/master/windows/dolphin-master-4131-windows-cl-msvc2022-x86_64.exe
and CTRL+F or CTRL+I is working fine.

I installed back the old version and repeated exactly the same tests and search is working fine in 24.07.70. It has to be some regression in never versions of Dolphin. Sorry, I can't test any other versions because there are not available on Windows to download.

Today I have installed "dolphin-release_24.08-4670-windows-cl-msvc2022-x86_64.exe"

a) CTRL+I now finds correctly files in current directory. FIXED.
b) CTRL+F now red banner appears at the top of list files with error: "invalid protocol 'filenamesearch'" and no files are found.

I'm able to reproduce what grofaty has reported on Dolphin 25.03.70, downloaded 2024-12-14 onto Windows 11 version 22H2
Comment 3 grofaty 2024-12-14 20:07:52 UTC
@Fletcher Porter, you have written you can't reproduce the issue I have reported, but what do you see instead in your case. Does it work for you?

I did another whole test on Windows 11 24H2 using Dolphin 25.03.70 downloaded from today's master:
https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/system/dolphin/master/windows/dolphin-master-4945-windows-cl-msvc2022-x86_64.exe

TEST
1. Create directory: C:\mydir and save two text files: abc.txt and test.txt
2. Press CTRL+I and type in: test
3. Dolphin correctly fines file test.txt.
4. For second test, press CTRL+F and type in: test
5. I expect Dolphin to find file test.txt and instead it reports error: Invalid protocol 'filenamesearch'.

I will attach print-screen in following post.
