  1. Date Range Searching By Date Created Stalled


    I am having two problems from within the search tool.
    1. I cannot change the default Date Modified to Date Created.
    2. I cannot set an exact date range, say August 12,2018 to August 29, 2018.
    When I try to fine tune the date range File Explore crashes.

    Very vexing. So need to get to files in this way. Any help will be appreciated,

    :)

    Searching range of dates; a nightmare


    Hi, this works for me, for example:

    Date Range Searching By Date Created Stalled [​IMG]


    Note- date taken must be specified in the field I've highlighted in the Properties sheet.

    Other image files in that test folder have dates in other years.

    This, as specified in Advanced Query Syntax reference doc.
    Advanced Query Syntax - Windows applications | Microsoft Docs
    (which is incomplete and old)
    also works:

    Date Range Searching By Date Created Stalled [​IMG]


    - but note that's date, not datetaken

    This is what you seek:

    Date Range Searching By Date Created Stalled [​IMG]


    It works if, after the first date, you type .. and then with no spaces the 2nd date.

    Curiously, you get a clear prompt and calendar box for the first date, but none for the second.

    In your case you have spaces around the ..

    I also can't tell where your search box is - what it belongs to.
