Bug Description
TL;DR - Super+F search results are frustratingly not bringing up a file named exactly the query string (with the .xlsm extension).
I've been researching insurance brokers in a file called ib.xlsm for the past few days, and I must've searched for that file by name via Super+F, and clicked on it, tens of times by now. However, Super+F followed by "ib" brings up anything BUT that file. That file is also one of the most recently modified files in the system (minutes ago).
The Super+F results don't include the file. Instead they include, for example,
* favicons.zip, in a directory happening to contain the query string in its name
* another file from that directory that doesn't have the query string anywhere in its name
* /c/download/
I had listed two more files from the meld directory, but Lauchpad appears to have cut them off (!)
* /c/download/ Linux/meld- 3.16.2/ build/lib. linux-x86_ 64-2.7/ meld/diffutil. py
