Hi - I'm using Everything 1.5.0.1383a. There is an issue with Everything search. Basically, it crashes when I try to search/use certain words. For example if I type (without quotes) the following: "Execution " i.e., the word Execution and then a space Everything crashes. I'm trying to search for files containing the word "Execution Plan". Similarly, Everything crashes like this for certain other words. Any advice on how I can resolve this issue or can the developers fix this issue?
Thanks.
