yep - PB

It's an 8 PB Network drive mounted on my machine. So the only way I can index it is as a folder, right? Not sure what that 32000 character depth means. The longest file path is probably only 100-200 characters. While I force a rebuild, I'd like to confirm that it's even possible to index a drive thi...

Admittedly, the drive is huge.

Is there a max-depth setting for the indexing that I could change?
Or is there a hard limit to how much can be indexed, so that deeply nested simply will not be reached?

Thanks

Thanks all!
I'm finding everything I need now

like this unnecessary one right here...

do they all fall within a certain unicode range that I can search for? or is there a shortcut phrase I can use?

yes, .rar drag-n-drop worked for years and now when I try to drag any file onto any rar archive, I get a circle/slash forbidden icon. Releasing the mouse button does not move the file, as it does in your case all the dragging I mention occurs inside the Everything window (where the found files are d...

First of all, Everything is definitely running as a service. Not as administrator. Suddenly, I cannot drag found files into a found .rar archive. But I can drag found files into a found .zip archive (which, judging by the purple icon, is also handled by winrar). The files are compressed into the zip...

never thought to use wildcards - oh the possibilities!

thanks!

The n: drive has hundreds of sub folders at various depths, named "CD 2".
How to search for all mp3 files in those particular folders?
isn't doing it for me!

Thank you notnull - :depth was the ticket!

I want to search a whole drive for folders that are children of other folders (or folders which contain other folders). (Trying to make this particular drive have no hierarchies more than 1 folder deep). It seems like the best way to do this is to search for folders that are children of other folder...

I'll take another look at that.
Thanks!
Last time I looked I was scared off by the 2009 instructions

so Everything is so nice I'm using it more and more as a file manager... find folder x find file y cut/paste the file into the folder to move it, using the two Everything windows but of course this ties up Everything for the duration of the move, which can sometimes be 15 minutes, if the file is hug...

boom! I got results!

thanks sir

this
pulls up every file with six capital or lowercase letters in a row - mixed

Do the square bracket classes work in Everything?

Thanks mr vsub.

Thanks all,

I disabled 'run as administrator' (had to restart Everything) and my hotkeys worked!

Now I need to see how my life will change now that Everything is running as a service. Not sure everything that implies.

SOLVED

I posted an example hotstring which worked for about five minutes.

(Am going to be away from keyboard most of the day)

So I search for files, and they're listed in the bottom pane. Then I try to alter the name of one of them. I hit F2, the name is highlighted, then I go to the end and type a text string which AutoHotKey is supposed to expand into a larger, more complicated string of text. This never worked. Fine, I ...

Where do I store my efus so that Everything will read them?

I thought that I could unmount the external drive, run a search and Everything would immediately 'find' those absent files via the efu files.

But that's not happening...

?

Thanks sir - that fixed it!

But somehow the Path slider did that to itself. No idea how.

EDIT

Yes, every new window I open defaults to that slid-over condition.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2048705/Untitled.jpg The first search window I opened (see it in the background) works as expected. Any further windows are just blank! Recently, I couldn't see the results on ANY of Everything's windows and I had to reboot my machine. (the status bar of all the ...

still waiting for it to happen again...
neat debugger window though!

yes, dbl-click launches again

and pretty sure I installed 64 bit

Good sirs:
The problem described in the subject line occasionally occurs and I usually fix it by quitting and restarting the engine.
Any better way of dealing the problem that I might have missed?

Thank you sirs!

Good sirs.
Can I do this? (on the fly, I mean... without setting up an exclude list)

I can say m:, and only results from drive m: will show up, but if I go l: m:, no results at all show up.
I want to search on just the L and M drives.
???

Thanks
