Here is a demonstration of what I mean, using Voidtool's Everything software as an example

In this example I search just the word sketchup,
It will return all paths and filename containing the word sketchup

Everything64_17v8ng9wNK.mp4

In this example, I search

folder:sketchup

It will return only paths which contain the word sketchup

Everything64_sGw2IHQqsP.mp4

In this example I search

file:sketchup

It will only return files where the filename that contains sketchup

In this example I search

content:sketchup *.txt

Everything64_hIwrlz8ffJ.mp4

It will return only txt files which contain the word sketchup inside them

Everything64_poM0czluk6.mp4

So what does this mean for TotalRegistery ?

Right now if you search sketchup in TotalRegistery, this happens

TotalReg_CVFHKln4AA.mp4

I'm not sure how that works. ...

Ok, I see it filters keys inside a path, so it's more like this

TotalReg_FZGKyxin3F.mp4

But I wish it was more.

So, taking from the example of everything

What do we need to search for in the registery

A word like sketchup found in

Any path or keys

Only in paths

equivalent to folder:sketchup
in registery parlance that could be path:sketchup

Only in key names

equivalent to file:sketchup
in registery parlance that could be key:sketchup

Only as content (internal value) of keys

content:sketchup

Maybe only keys where the path contains X and the content contains Y

Equivalent Everything example

content:"tape measure" sketchup.txt

content:"tape measure" path:google key:shortcut 11

where it would return keys containing "tape measure", the path contains "google", the key name contains "shortcut" and anywhere in the path or key name contains "11"
