Only searching C main drive for files/folders/programs #12

Open starsoccer opened 7 years ago

starsoccer commented 7 years ago

When Using Cerebro, and searching for a program I have on another drive, it does not come up within search. As soon as I make a shortcut to the program though and put the shortcut on my main, C, drive, it comes up right away.

OS: Windows 10 Creators Update Cerebro Version: 0.2.8

@starsoccer hey! Yes, it is how it works now. Problem that it is not easy to distinguish programs from other .exe files, that is why we are not displaying all .exe files. Instead, we show programs from desktop or start menu.

So, if you want to search a program from Cerebro it should be added to start menu or desktop.

Thanks for confirming/clarifying that.

Any plans to expand that list or make it configurable. so custom drives or folders can be added to search for programs?

There is a plan, but not for the next release @starsoccer
