Hi.
I have a problem with spotlight when searching files by name.
For example, I have several folders called mk, and also files called mk*.*
When I do a spotlight search in a finder window, typing in "mk", then it results in several files.
If I switch to "name matches", then I got no results.
Sometimes, switching the "Search:" tab from "This Mac" to the local folder, and back, solves the issue.
Sometimes not.
I attach a couple of figures.
Any idea?
Thank you
