Partial word search not working.....

[Daniel Gali]

Hi …simple question…

doing a partial search on any file stopped working for me a few days ago… only searches for complete words show results. I.E search for ‘syste’ will show 0 matches need to search for ‘system’ and then it finds all of the system words

Is the Match whole word only checkbox checked??
