Claim:
A computer-storage device storing computer-executable instructions for performing a method of filtering search results to hide advanced files, the method comprising: receiving, at a computing device, a textual input as a search criteria; determining that each of a plurality of files have a file name that partially matches the textual input, wherein the file name partially matches the textual input when the file name includes the textual input and has one or more additional characters; determining that a subset of the plurality of files are advanced files, wherein a file is an advanced file if the file has a metadata entry designating the file as advanced; displaying search results that include representations of files in the plurality of files that partially match the textual input while suppressing display of the advanced files that partially match the textual input, thereby preventing representations of advanced files from being displayed as part of the search results; receiving a modification to the textual input forming a modified input; determining that the modified input fully matches the advanced file because the modified input is a full file name of the advanced file; and displaying a representation of the advanced file.
