I’ve been using Unity since 3.2 (or something like that), and I noticed the Favorites only three times or so during my years with Unity. Once I actually tried to use it. My reasoning was that I can manually add assets to this folder for the quick access. Either I couldn’t find such option or it doesn’t exist. And now I have no idea what it supposed to do or how to use it. As far as I can tell it just sits there, wastes space and annoys me I would love to have an option to remove it!
Edit: OK, I figured out how to use it and I didn’t like it all that much. So yeah, I the option to remove it would be great
If we could choose for each Favorite Search if it was User (global/computer) or Project-scoped like Quick Search (see attached screenshot), it would be great.
In the meantime, I guess I’ll use Quick Search for Project-scoped searches, but that’s not the same interface/window.
