Ok, the truth is that I rarely touch the configuration files :)

ok I understand the behavior, but, the list that you select should be
constant and
only the chosen file should be random. Here I leave the output provided by
windows
and linux as a report

I just referred to that problem, excuse my English, my computer is in
Spanish (my native language).
I must clarify that after the last update this problem seems to have
disappeared...
This may sound like a request, but, the behavior to enter a wrong word
(badword) could be
First: List the files that BEGIN with "badword", sorted from the shortest
length to the longest (or some other criteria).
Second: List the files that DO NOT BEGIN with "badword" (that only continue
it), ordered by some criteria.
Third: If you do not find anything that matches "badword" to show the
classic error of not found, look in ctan.
Similar to the behavior of the fedora package manager $ dnf search "badword"
Greetings and thanks for your great job
