I’ve just upgraded to 4.00.1112 (ListaryHook*.dll files replaced as well).
Win + Q is assigned for the Favorites toolbar.
Win + S for Listary.
When no window is active and the mouse cursor is on the first desktop (out of two) and I press Win + S, Listary’s searchbox pops up but is hidden behind all windows that occupy some of the space where the searchbox should be displayed. Pressing Win + S again (without closing the searchbox first), brings the searchbox to the front, but this time centered (instead of the lower right of the screen).
Same setup, no window active, mouse cursor on the first desktop. Win + Q for my Favorites. Searchbox comes up (No items match your search.), with character “q” inside, still hidden behind all other windows. Seems that the global hotkey isn’t registered correctly? Pressing Win + Q again shows my favorites menu (this time on top of all windows).
Here is an image of the hidden searchbox:
An image after pressing Win + Q (this time on the second destop to show clearly, that a q was inserted instead of displaying the favorites directly):
These behaviors may be confusing, but are all by design.
To enable Win + Q on desktop, go to Listary Options - By Window Type, select Desktop on left, and check Enable local hot keys when Listary toolbar is hidden. I highly recommend you to simply use double-click instead of Win + Q on desktop. It seems that you’ve already used single click to set input focus to desktop, so just click once more.
About Win + S, Listary’s toolbar only stays above the attached window. The toolbar can not be topmost, so there won’t be a fix for this. However the next version will add a new feature, and you’ll never need to search on desktop again
Pressing Win + S twice detaches Listary from current window, pressing Win + S again will re-attach Listary to it.
I call the listary toolbar with my configured hotkey Strg-Alt-L in firefox, it was shown in the middle of firefox and I try to change to a shown directory.
Result:
listary try to open this directory in total commander 8.01 with an error “failed to create pipe”
Oh, you didn’t mention you were using TC x64. You definitely can set path to c:\Program Files\totalcmd\TOTALCMD64.EXE. Just change to it and everything would be fine.
The cause of this error is that you were using TCMDX64.EXE (which is NOT TC, but a helper program used by TC) instead of TOTALCMD64.EXE (check your first post…)
In Everything, if I search for a file with a very common name (ex. Red.txt) who exist like 200 of them, and this particulary file is in a folder (ex. Colors) if I activate the “Match Path” option, I can search “Colors Red” to access to the file I wanted.
Would you consider add this feature to Listary own search engine, or if’s not possible add the correspondly support for Everything?
Thanks.

Hello Channing,
sorry you are so right, I’m a little bit blind
I didn’t see the diction TOTALCMD64.EXE versus TCMDX64.EXE…
Hi Channing, I set listary and its working more than great after experiencing with the options, its so reach that needs some time to be but have one question/suggestion:
I want the files that launched to appear on the top of the search results,
So when I type “edit” (AND the previous 5 times when I typed “edit” I launched the application “editplus”) I want the editplus.exe to appear on the top of the search results instead of editplus directory that is now first, without ever being launched.
Launchy uses the same method, as well as find and run robot, its developer has an option to uncheck this (its checked by default) and calls it History File Bonus (adds weight to previously launched items)
