Sorry for the odd thread title; I'm not sure what you call this problem. However, I have learned to use my Macbook with minimal use of the mouse; and one of my favorite ways to do that is type the first letter or letters of the folder I want to open, and keep proceeding like that, without having to double click. On the desktop, in addition to some folders I have my HD, called Macintosh2TB. However, when I type in 'ma' it doesn't highlight. I have to manually double click it.

Do you know why this is? I am using Mojave with my 2015 MB Pro 15. Thank you for any suggestions!
