Re: Command Search Syntax for Old Log Files
Dumb mistake. Thank you. Yes, without the superfluous double quote, it works. Your other suggestion works too. Curious: is there an addition that would make these sort by Date Modified descending? Also, is there an easy way to change the less-than date from yesterday to something like a week ago? As...

Command Search Syntax for Old Log Files
I have a copy of everything.exe in C:\Windows.
My batch file works with this:
but not with this:
Is there a better way?
My batch file works with this:
Code: Select all
start "" everything -search "C: *.log !folder: !dm:today"
Code: Select all
start "" everything -search "C: *.log !folder: !dm:today" !dm:yesterday"

How to List Filenames Containing Non-ASCII Characters
A previous thread (https://www.voidtools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10380) (sorry, not sure how to use URL tags here) seems to say I can get a list of filenames using regex:[^\x00-\x7f] . I think I was previously having success with this command in Windows: everything -search D: regex:[^\x00-\x7f] Bu...

Re: Command to search for non-ASCII characters
Apparently no way to edit previous post. Correction: that last one should read:
everything -search regex:[^^\x00-\x7F]+
with a plus at the end as shown.

Re: Command to search for non-ASCII characters
Not seeing any way to click SOLVED or Thank You. But thank you. That worked.
FYI, I stick a copy of a file like everything.exe into C:\Windows, and then I only need everything -search regex:[^^\x00-\x7F].
Cheers!

Command to search for non-ASCII characters
I have discovered the technique of entering regex:[^\x00-\x7F]+ in the GUI, to find filenames that contain non-ASCII characters. But how can I open the GUI, with that search, from a batch command? Running everything.exe or es with regex or -regex doesn't do it.

Command Input, GUI Output
I have a filename: "Filename.xyz." I want to search for its occurrences on D: and display the results in the Everything GUI. So I enter this on the command line: es.exe -path: D:\ "Filename.xyz" That gives me the full path of the desired file. That output appears on the command l...

Command Line Search for Specific File

Simple command line variations on -filename are not producing the desired result. Could someone point me toward a webpage that provides syntax examples, ...

I am using Everything 1.4.1.935 x64 on Windows 10 Pro 1809. I search for *.wmv. A list of .wmv files appears, with an unfamiliar icon next to each. I double-click on one. I get an error: This file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action. Please install an app or, if one is...

Re: Partial Filename Search Not Working
Well, that's pretty impressive. You solved my problem, and you did it before I even had a chance to waste a whole lot of time on it. Thank you! I guess we are saying that there's nothing in Tools > Options to control this. I played with the seemingly relevant settings repeatedly, to no avail. Should...

Partial Filename Search Not Working
I've been using Everything for years. I'm very happy with it. Suddenly, today, for some reason, partial filename search is not working anymore. I'm using Windows 10 Pro 1709, not updated in the last several days. I type activ into the search bar, and it doesn't show files with "activity" o...

I have been using Everything 1.3.4.686 x64 since it first came out. I usually use the portable version. I have it installed as well, and sometimes I try that.

Re: Hotkey Died and Cannot Be Resurrected
That value was 334. I changed it to 2134, saved, and then killed and restarted Everything. Tools > Options > General > Keyboard > Shortcuts for File | New Search Window Command displays Win+V.

Yes, Winkey-E opens Explorer, and Winkey opens the Start Menu, as usual. So I don't get the "Key Disabled" message mentioned in that other post you've pointed to. It's not a gaming laptop (not very powerful); I don't see any gaming options in Control Panel > Keyboard, and "gaming"...

Re: Wildcard searches not working
Since my search for "asterisk" turned up nothing, I thought I'd just mention that this particular thread provided the answer to my own quandary as to the proper use of the asterisk as a wild card. May also be of interest to those who question the question mark.
