How do I ensure I get only the specific file, RotEnc-LCD-Uno-NoDFR.ino, and not other unwanted results?
I tried putting it inside < > but no change.
Also tried the prefix 'exact:' but that delivered no results.
Also inside double quotes " " which delivered all the unwanted results. Contrary to this AI assertion:
AI Overview

To limit your search in Everything to an exact target, you must enquote the phrase or word you are looking for in the search bar. For example, to find a file named exactly "Annual Report 2023", you would search for "Annual Report 2023".
How to search for an exact match in Everything:
Open Everything .
Enter your search query: in the search bar, but enclose the entire phrase or word in quotation marks.
Example: ` "Exact file name.txt" `
Press Enter: to perform the search.
This method ensures that Everything will only return results that contain the exact phrase you typed, making it ideal for finding specific file names or content.


EDIT:
Finally thought of trying this suffix
!.ino.
and that worked. Is there a more obvious way? Perhaps some setting or syntax for 'No additional extensions'?
