Find window revert to old style
Answered
Intellij just asked me to update...and once again I am confronted with the find as popup issue, only now there seems to be no option to disable it. "ide.find.as.popup" is missing from the registry. I now have that preview window which I do not want. I want the old style find that lets me enter the information without wasting space and time with a useless preview and without forcing me to use ctrl-enter (as opposed to just enter) to get it to open in find window.

Hi. This legacy dialog was removed: https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/commit/2c053bc3464e99d60598468eda83ac01c198fe83 .
That is unfortunate. The "legacy" dialog was functional. The new dialog is cluttered. For me it adds useless functionality and removes a much cleaner interface. I would prefer the old dialog.
Incidentally, I just also noticed that there is a bug in the display of the preview, so not only is it cluttering my view, it isn't even displaying properly. I am not interested in creating a proper bug report for this. The previous functionality was sufficient and working.
totally agree – the new system is really dysfunctional, the old system was much better. First time I've ever had to complain about IntelliJ
