anoop ss was talking about that site for windows questions...you know...that one. It won't matter because pretty soon now (maybe 30 years or so) there won't be any windows users. Shame. I can see why anoop might be depressed.

Hi Jeremy,
I can't perform a boolean search anymore. When I enter "key1 key2" all post are returned which containd "key1" OR "key2". I had this problem before but then it was my stupidity. I wonder if something has changed now.

This was from an earlier post in this thread. But really, now that radio button is not there anymore. Look at this screenshot.

It's always boolean now, that radio box is no longer needed. As I have mentioned, make sure you are searching posts and not threads if you want both words to appear in the same post (and not in the same thread).
