In Visual Studio 2012.

Is there a way to lock the options in VS's "Find In Files" dialog?

For some reasons, the options in the "Find In Files" change, especially the "Look In" dropdown list.

Most of the time it will toggle from "Entire Solution" to "Current Document" or worse "Current Block"

So, is there a way to lock the options? Or is there a better "find in files" that can be used in VS 2012?

Thanks.

Max.

If I recall from my own experiences, the options are dependent on what is currently in focus in the project.
