I don't use special characters in my search syntax, only my filenames. So my search syntax in this example is only -"Web Session", and you can copy that to verify that I'm using only standard characters. Attached is the screenshot of my search syntax and results. I'm happy to provide additional info. As you can see, it looks like the results include only files with "Web Session" instead of excluding it. Perhaps this has something to do with the latest version that attempts to index special characters? I've tried to email you about this issue via email weeks ago, but didn't see response so I'm posting it again here. Sorry if it seems like I'm double posting, but not having boolean operator working correctly is a problem.
