Are you using folder indexes to index these drives? I'm not sure, how do I check? To check this I think I should click Tools > Options > Folders (under Indexes). If this is correct then the answer is no. Is it all drives or do some quickly rescan? All seems to take a long time on both systems. On m...

I'm having issues pressing the required keys. You state "In Everything, please Ctrl + ~" on my keyboard the + and ~ require that I also press the shift key, is this what you are expecting? If I do press the shift key nothing seems to happen. However if I just press the three keys I get a w...

I just installed Everything-1.4.0.713b.x64 and as in the past when I click on a file in the search results the entire line is not highlighted. I'd find it more useful if the entire line was highlighted.
Much thanks for your efforts. I use Everything multiple times a day on my 70 TB system.

If you run Everything as administrator you will not see mapped network drives mounted from a standard user. Please try running Everything as a standard user and install the Everything service: In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options. Click the General tab. Check Everything Service Uncheck...

I'm now running v 1.3.4.686 (x64) and Everything is back to scanning my system, I right-click on a drive or folder and select Everything.

Are you using NTFS or folder indexing -is C: indexed under Tools -> Options -> NTFS or Tools -> Options -> Folders? Normally your C: drive would be indexed as a NTFS volume, unless you have changed it to a folder index. Folders indexing has limitations and can miss changes. If you are using NTFS in...

In Version 1.3.4.686 (x64) lately when I CUT files from the results and then paste the files to another drive the results in Everything is not updated. Example. I've changed the focus of Everything to "C:\Users\John\Downloads" and I enter "track" (no quotes) for my search string....

OK I removed my C drive (this is a SSD) and added the essential folders. I'll see how this goes.

Any thoughts as to why Everything has a problem with my C drive? Do you need any other info from me or do you want me to test something?

OK I'm back again. I'm now running Everything 1.3.4.686, per the check for updates I have the latest version. My OS is now Win 8.1 x64 with all of the updates from Microsoft.

Great, removing the indexed folders resolved the issue.

You will need to run "Everything" as administrator to use NTFS indexing. If I right-click on the Everything.exe file and select run as administrator the DB is loaded and Everything pops up super fast and does not scan my drives. Normally while I'm in my file manager (xplorer2) I just righ...

Just a wild guess, but try uninstalling and re-installing. I had a weird issue with another application that had been running without issue for several months and then it was running weird. I uninstalled and re-installed and the issue went away. Possibly this action will eliminate your issue.

Per the help file if I don't specify a DB location on the Options > Volumes tab then the database should be located in the install folder.

As I understand Everything it will not search a NAS unit however a possible solution would be to create a file (e.g. a database) that contains a listing of all the files on the NAS unit (e.g. a directory listing, there are several applications that will do this) and then Everything could search this...
