Not Separating Folders From Files When Searching
I would like to make a search using everything, but not separate the folders from the files. I.e, sort by name, and have the folders be with the rest of the files alphabetically, rather than at the top (or bottom).

Unfortunately, Everything 1.4 separates files and folders.
Everything 1.5 will have the option to mix files and folders.

There is a big drawback with `Mix files and folders` imo:

More generally, i would like to have mix files and folders available for any sort of search/ordering/filtering.I want to sort by 2 columns: sort by both run count and path at the same time, in this order.
From this perspective, what _I_ would like Everything to do is to mix files and folders together, sorted by path, when they have the same run count.
You could see my sorting desire as the SQL
```sql
select *
from Everything
order by RunCount, Path
```

Support for mixing files and folders for all sort properties is on my TODO list.
Thank you for the suggestion.
For now, Everything will only support mixing files and folders when sorting by name, path, size and date modified.
