I need to search in regular HTML (“*.HTM;*.HTML”) files only. Why SSScanner selects files in .ZIP and other archives even though I do not specify “*.ZIP”?
The information you enter in the “File types” field specifies files to be scanned both on your computer drives and those within archives; just consider archives to be drives as well. Unless you want to process archives as binary files, you do not need to enter “*.ZIP” to make SSScanner process archived files — the product automatically selects archives and scans all enclosed files that match file types, dates, and attributes you’ve specified. If you want SSScanner to skip all or some particular archives, select the tab “Archives”, click a desired archive type (i.e., “ZIP”) using the right mouse button, and select the pop-up menu item “Never scan files within ZIP archives”. Just in case, if you want SSScanner to search in ZIP archives on the binary level (treating .ZIP-files as a sequence of bytes and alphabetical letters), specify “*.ZIP” for the “File types” field having disabled processing files within ZIP archives in the SSScanner “Archives” tab.
