Start11 search is poor

Hello,

For a long time I am using Launchy as my windows launcher to start apps quickly. I wanted to start using start 11 instead, just give it a try- thought its redundant with Launchy. Issue is, the search is really not good, as I cannot find queries that do not consist of a beginning string.

For example, I want to find a program called SpeedCrunch. Writing "Spe" will show the program in results. Writing "Cru", will not... Could this be fixed? I would appreciate all feedback!

Which search mode are you using?

Start11 or Start10 style?

Also when your search does not show your results, does nothing show or is it simply so far down the results you cannot see it?

I was using Start 10 mode, but for the purposes of testing I switched to Start 11- The latter works correctly, thanks. But I like the Start 10 results format a lot more. Its a bit weird that the search engine is different for both (By reading the description ive received an impression this is only about UI presentation).

With Start 10 search nothing comes up.
