Title: <Default Excludes> add *.vpwhistu but still there in "Replace in Files"
Post by: rowbearto on December 23, 2022, 03:52:52 AM

I added *.vpwhistu to "Default Excludes" in Tools->Options->Editing->Search, made <Default Excludes> equal to:

Code: [Select]

<Binary Files>;*.vpwhist*
Now when I do "Find in Files" the searched text (which is present in the .vpwhistu file) is no longer shown in the search results (it was in the search results when *.vpwhist* was not in <Default Excludes>).

However when I then go to "Replace in Files", and keep using my <Default Excludes>, it does now find the term in the .vpwhistu file and is asking to replace it, even though *.vpwhist* is in <Default Excludes> and it doesn't show in "Find in Files" results - it still asks to replace it.

I'm using 27.0.1 on Linux x64.

Reproduced. Not a new bug.

Added hot fix for this. You can work around this by specifying a literal list of extensions.
