Version 4.6​

11/20/2024

Improvements​

• The color highlighting of found search terms can now be deactivated under "Options > Miscellaneous > Results list".
• The input field for the file content search now has a search history. The previously entered terms can be viewed and selected using the drop-down button on the right-hand side of the field.

• The size filter has been revised and now offers a preset of file sizes in addition to self-defined values.
• The input help now offers the option for searching specifically for the creator of a file (author or owner).
• The initial value of date filters has been improved.

Version 4.6.1

01/31/2025

Improvements​

• The file size filter now has a clearer icon.

Bug fixes​

• Some corrections have been made to prevent the application from freezing.
• A bug has been fixed where drives were not scanned after program start in rare cases.
• When searching for file contents, spaces are no longer considered as part of the search term, but as an ampersand. A comma is now regarded as an or-connection, i.e. only one of the two terms must appear in the file content for the object to be included in the search results. To search for terms or parts of sentences with spaces, put the "entire search term in quotation marks".
• A bug has been fixed where folders with semicolons in their names were not searched correctly.

Version 4.7​

05/14/2025

Improvements​

• UltraSearch can now be equipped with a central search index for faster content searches on shared drives. The new search index enables the use of UltraSearch in entire teams without utilizing network resources. We offer the central search index with our complementary product SpaceObServer DataCentral.
• The lines of the results list are now easier to read thanks to a changing background color.
• A search path can now be inserted directly in the dialog for adding search paths. In addition, you can now change the size of the dialog and move it.
• The results of a content search are now also displayed directly in the preview for PDF files. However, this is only possible for local and available files.
• There is now a button on the "Start" tab to change the display of the results (list view or thumbnails).
• Prioritization of operators: Rounded search terms (joined by spaces or "AND") are now prioritized higher than ORed search terms (joined by commas or "OR"). This means that for search queries without parentheses, all AND conditions are evaluated first before OR conditions are taken into account. This leads to more precise and expectation-compliant search results.

Error corrections​

• The settings for the file content search (configurable under "Options > Configure file content search") were not taken into account during the search. This problem has been fixed.
• The current license status is now retrieved more regularly to prevent misleading messages regarding an expiring maintenance period, even though it has already been extended.

Miscellaneous​

• Minor improvements have been made to the "Suggested paths".

New functions​
