Hi @guy038 , to your question about the 8 logical processors: they don’t really matter here. The load threads do very little computing, they mostly wait for the key to deliver the next file. How many reads can usefully run at once depends on the drive, not on the CPU. That’s why auto picks the count by drive type: 4 for local drives like your key, 8 for network drives, where every file waits for the server, and 1 for hard disks, where parallel reads would just make the heads jump back and forth. On a key with a weaker controller, 8 could just as well be slower than 4. On yours it’s slightly faster, so feel free to keep it. 8 is also the maximum. One more thing: your first comparison showed 27 053 hits in the same 646 files, now it’s 27 010. Did anything change on the key in between?

Hi, @coises and All, You said : Since all you need to do to cancel a selection is to click anywhere in the document, I didn’t figure anything more would be needed. I agree with you that’s not a big task ! I just wanted to point out, that if you want to keep focus on the Search++ dialog, in order to use any other Alt + ... command, I do not see any command which could cancel the selection ! Now, regarding the five shortcuts problem, you’re totally right : my FRENCH keyboard is a standard one and in order to get, for example, the Alt + 1 action, I must use the combination Alt + Shift + 1 ! Now, I do not mind to stay with these Alt + Shift + 1-5 shortcuts ! But, if you find a way to detect the keys themselves, that would be fine too ! BR guy038 P.S. : Sorry for thinking you might have made a mistake when assigning those 5 shortcuts !
