[Feature request] quick search within the current folder in windows explorer

[privacy-advo]

Problem If you want to search for a particular file in a folder and want to use FlowLauncher, you have to use the global search. This will provide you system wide results.

Solution Auto-search the current folder by simply start typing.

Describe alternatives you've considered Using Listary - even though it's outdated and has a horrible high dpi scaling.

might be something this poc https://github.com/Flow-Launcher/Flow.Launcher/pull/904 offers- click on the explorer window and open flow will automatically insert the path and you can then start typing to search.

#904 looks nice. Is there already a way to do this?

[jjw24]

no, this has not been implemented yet, it's currently just a proof of concept.

[privacy-advo]

I'd happy to use this. You can check out how List_ary handles this. List_ary even higlights the current selected file. (There is a portable version: https://www.listary.com/download)
