I can confirm this behaviour.

Interesting that it works if it's the first line in a file.
Search found 4 matches

Re: Regular expression in file search does not work as expected
No solution so far.
Other regular expressions like abc.*xyz work,
but ^ and $ (for beginning/end of line) do not.
I'm using "FreeCommander XE 2022 Build 860 32-bit public".

Re: Regular expression in file search does not work as expected
I suppose that 'class' isn't a regular expression for a FreeCommander. Try to uncheck the box and search again.
Sorry, but that will not help, because I need to find all files with lines that start with "class". There are too many files that contain "class" at some other position.

Regular expression in file search does not work as expected
I have problems with file search using regular expressions.
Of course I activated the "regular expression" checkbox.
1. regular expression in filename
for example search ^abc to find all files starting with abc => works as expected!
2. search for file contents
for example search for file content ...
