Not a fan of having to select search "everywhere" every time I need to find a folder. 

my whole team had trouble "searching". 

I have to click everywhere every time or it only searched the folder I am in. 

Too busy for this extra step.

    Our team is having the same issue. Is there any setting that defaults to search "everywhere" like it did before?

    I agree, As the EID Admin, I have hundreds of users that are very unhappy about this change / enhancement that took place this week. This is not a ticket issue; this is a gross miscalculation in how devs at Box think people use search. It was known as the "Global Search Bar", because it searched everywhere by default! Who ever thought it was good idea to change its default behavior to be a Local search after performing a Global search was crazy. Roll this update back ASAP, please.

    I agree, too busy for the additional added step that adds time to the countless searches that I do every day.  The Global Search Bar should be searching everywhere not in the folder I'm in.  Why would anyone want to do a secondary search in the folder they are already in?  Please undo this change and make my co-workers and myself happy again.
