With the just-released Preview 3 of the planned Visual Studio 2022 17.9 upgrade, Microsoft has enhanced Code Search, also known as the All-In-One Search experience.
The third preview of Visual Studio 2022 17.9 was launched January 17 and can be downloaded at the Visual Studio website.
The improvements to Code Search allow Visual Studio users to search for any word or string of characters across their solution, supplementing file and symbol results from their codebase. Users also now can search for words in comments, names of variables and parameters, or any other string of characters across a codebase. For more specialized text search, Find in Files (Ctrl+Shift+F) and Quick Find (Ctrl+) offer more options.
