FLOW SEARCH WINDOWS SEARCH

I have a folder named "DATA RECOVERY". Searching in Windows Search, the top result is the actual folder. In Flow Launcher (I use Windows search as indexer), top results are its subfolders. The actual folder is down at 7th position. How do I fix this? In

Learn everything's syntax from here. You can use folder:DATA RECOVERY. If you want the same search results like the windows search as you've shown in your screenshot here, use windows index instead of everything index (You can change this in explorer plugin settings). You have much more flexibility over your search with everything. Once you learn the syntax you will appreciate how much better and logical it is. If you want regexes and the full syntax of everything to work with Flow Launcher, use everything 1.5a. Troubleshoot the setup from here.
