Everything search doesn't work from Toolbar
Posted: Wed Apr 01, 2026 4:56 pm
Hi,
I'm trying to create a toolbar button that searches a selected word in Everything.
However, I can’t figure out what the parameter for a selected word is — or how to pass a selected word at all.
Chatgpt say something like this:$(WORDSEL)
but the highlighted word isn't entered into the search bar; instead $(WORDSEL)
Does anyone have an idea what might be wrong?
