But with the new browser when I hit *, my system just goes "Bong" with an error sound

After using Ctrl+L? There are actually 2 ways to search/filer:

Ctrl+L: location entry, e.g. you can type a file path, and it should provide completion
Ctrl+F (or just typehead, e.g. start typing in the file list) : search recursively for file names in the current directory (using a substring search, e.g. can match any part of the filename)

In either case I don't know why you'd get a bong ¹, but maybe the search features suites you better?

again, I'm not very knowledgeable about Windows behavior, so if there are differences between Linux and Windows here (which is possible given it's interacting with the OS) I am likely to miss them. ↩
