Suggestion: Implement a proper search function for the forum allowing a user to search for a _phrase_ "failed to lock file" for example, which currently gives ~54000 hits while a search for the term 'lock' gives far fewer hits (still thousands), the opposite of what you would want from a useful search function.

Ian, try using Google to search the forums by including the argument 'site:forum.acronis.com' along with your search term.

Thank you Steve, for that very helpful instruction on how to query regular search engines too - worked like a charm for Bing as well and finally I got some relevant search results! 🤩🙏🏼
 

Best Regards,
