Thank you very much!

So it's like this now:

Biff

Menu "Help" > Check for Updates... Yesyes, but that does not work here. Somehow an automatic update notification / signal or so would be good. Or better yet, an automatic updating. but to be on the safe side I would still visit the Everything Forum often and keep an eye out for updates. ;...

Biff

Ah, no no, a little coercion can't hurt (If I had a program like that, I would force the users to do it too...and read 4 pages at least).
Ah, thank you!

OK, yes, I will wait. Thank you!

Biff

Oops, OK, so maybe that's the punishment for not being here often enough.

The update notification of Everything, the program, does not seem to work with me.

OK, many thanks for the link! Then I'd rather come by here more often.

Biff

Thank you for the screenshot.

Very sorry, I meant updates for Everything.

Biff

OK, thank you very much!

Is there a way to get notifications about updates?

Biff

Ah, yes, indeed, that is very useful. For example: I have two folders containing music files, but also their related lyrics text files and album covers. When only interested in the music files, I can set the filter to Audio by selecting it from the list and serach for diff:"C:\folder1\";C:...

Biff

OK, I understand, thank you very much!

Biff

Ah, so that's what these macros are for obviously. OK, thank you. Great, now it works: https://i.imgur.com/2v4pPON.png But how do I know what files are equal, unique, different? Files not shown are equal (by date AND size, not by date OR size?)? Files shown are unique or different? And files shown w...

Biff

Now this is shown: https://i.imgur.com/PbhI5uA.png So one sets a different filter than the one made to compare? Why is that? Whatfor is this filter: Makro: diff | Search query: diff:"X:\first folder\";"Y:\second folder\" | Difference between 2 folders | https://www.voidtools.com/...

Biff

Thank you very much!

Very sorry, I cannot find the mistake I make:

What is wrong?

Biff

Sorry, so what do I have to do now to compare the content of a folder of an online drive with an index in Everything or to compare to offline folders against each other?

Biff

Ah, okey, sorry for my confusion. Thank you.

Biff

OK, so everything without quotation marks, I guess (like in my example in the screenshot). Sorry, then what does that mean:

Use double quotes to escape any spaces.

Biff

In the search field?

So everything behind nop: does not have any effect. Does one have to use quotation marks behind nop:?

Biff

OK, many thanks!

Biff

OK, I understand, thank you very much!

By the way, is there a field suitable / an option (somewhere in the Bookmarks / Filters windows or else) to make some notices.

Biff

Use right-click -> Properties (Alt + Enter) to double check. For online drives only? descendantcount:0 will match empty folders in your index. So escendantcount:0 or empty: entered in the search field show every really empty folder in the index and for online drives? There is no difference between ...

Biff

Many thanks! So when in the column "Descendant Count" the value is "0" the folder is ALWAYS absolutely empty? So is this correct? child-count;descendant-count; !A: !B: !D: !E: !F: !G: !H: !K: !L: !M: !N: !O: !P: !Q: !R: !S: !T: !U: !V: !W: !X: !Y: !Z: column1:=size: columns:name;...

Biff

Is there a column showing the amount of items contained in a folder?

Biff

No, it does not. Thank you very much! Strange, yesterday I seemed to see (actually I am convinced to do) on that page the version Everything-1.5.0.1367a.x64.zip (so the version released before my last version (Everything-1.5.0.1368a.x64.zip) I had yesterday). I guess, that actually cannot be possibl...

Biff

Suddenly this filter does not work anymore:

How could one make it work?

Biff

es, that looks fine. That will search your eml files for the specified content. OK, thank you. Just use content: and ignore emlcontent: content: uses the extension associated iFilter. (this will be the built-in eml iFilter for eml files by default) emlcontent: ignores the extension and will perform...

Biff

You will have to ask Microsoft why their eml iFilter modifies eml files. OK, then I might as well ask them why they don't make a decent operating system. ShellExView can be used to manage iFilters. Many thanks for the link! Please use the following to search the content of eml files: *.eml content:...

Biff

OK, I do not use any external filter or whatever with Everything. The stock Windows eml handler will modify your eml files. Oops, sounds dangerous, how? And why? I guess, it would not be good, if that happened. Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> content_builtin_eml_handler Please don't disable this if ...

Biff

Many thanks! This will allow you access to Everything's eml content search if you use disable Everything as the default eml handler. If one does not use Everything as the default eml handler you don't need it? Where can I find the option (or whatever it is) Everything as the default eml handler? So ...

Biff

That's great, thank you very much!

Biff

OK, thank you very much!

Biff

OK, thank you very much!

Biff

Many thanks! If a label has been entered in the properties, You mean in the name / label field of the drive or its properties reached by right click context menu in Win? Or in Everything? If the latter where is it? this can be found in the "Volume Label" column. OK, but it does not seem to...

Biff

How could one show the label with the drive letters under "Name"? Or in that mouse over field? Or else? To identify the four D: USB sticks.

Biff

OK, thank you!

Biff

There is no other way than using the search field (like the filters)? So I wouldn't need to enter the drive letter each time after opening the journal.

Biff

How could I in the Journal only show the files / folders of a special drive, e.g. I:?

Biff

You want pressing F9 multiple times activate the following filters succesively? No no, I want this: Any filter <=> everything (back and forth). Or shown differently: Filter X > Everything > Filter X > Everything > Filter X > Everything > Filter X. X can be any filter (besides of filter everything)....

Biff

When in the Organize Filters window (Menu > Search > Organize Filters), select a filter and press the Edit button. Add a keyboard shortcut for this specific filter. When done, edit the next filter Yes, OK, I understand. I actually do not want to add a shortcut to a specific filter (for this approac...

Biff

Type about:keys in the search bar and press ENTER Many thanks! Keyboard Shortcuts for a filter are part of the filter configuration. For each single filter, I assume. How could I assign / change a shortcut for ALL of the filters? Pressing the shortcut once will activate that filter; press it again ...

Biff

Where (how is it called?) could I find the shortcut (here F9) to switch between the filters Everything and another filter? To add a second shortcut.

Is there a search for the shortcuts (the keys)?

Biff

These shortcuts can be active in the Search bar (Use shortcut in = Search Edit) , the result list (Use shortcut in = Result List) or both (Use shortcut in = Global). So they (obviously) do not work in the Options window, although they are "global" in Everything? But they work in the Folde...

Biff

Yes, most people don't. Very sorry for the bad explanation! How could I get this working: https://i.imgur.com/G4ZTkTz.png When I press F10 in that window above nothing happens. When I press it in the result window a new window opens. When I press it outside of Everything nothing happens. When I pres...

Biff

How could one add a second shortcut to e.g. File | New Window?

Is there a way to use a key like CTRL, SHIFT, etc. as a shortcut by pressing them quickly two times (and 3 times for another function)?

Biff

That's great, thank you very much!

Biff

Back in the main window: - Set the filter to Everything Sorry, yes, nothing shown in the result list. What might be wrong? So one has to execute the steps above in exactly that order? When I click the filter, "Querying" is shown left on the status bar. When I enter while querying or after...

Biff

Cannot get it working, where is the mistake:

I: is online. Y: is offline.

Biff

Yes, I understand. Sorry for my bad expression: I meant are they just placeholders for foldernames which are on one or more onlilne drives? Or are they just placeholders for foldernames that are in a list in Everything? Is this a comparison between a file list and a folder on an online drive or anot...

Biff

Why didn't you say so right away

Well, I guess because of difficulties with the brain and other impairments.

Wait...I am not quite sure...but these two folders are not folders from online drives, are they? Although...

Biff

Sounds like what I wanted. How would I do such?

Why does this only seem to work with two nearly identical folder structures?

Biff

It looks like you don't have configured any Windows eml previewer. Yes, that's right. So without that Windows eml previewer Everything cannot show the preview? Or is there a setting in Everything I had to set? Actual Windows version have an integrated eml preview module. Many thanks for the code. T...

Biff

I'll have this fixed in the next alpha update. (1367a+)

Thank you very much!

Currently, copy as tsv only works if all results are selected.

So you can only copy every column or nothing with only that tab formating.

OK, many thanks!

Biff

There is no downside using the MailDir format. But the Thunderbird website says otherwise. It avoids having one big file with all mails inside. Yes, that would be good. So if one activates that option Thunderbird does it for All e-mails (not only the ones created / received since activating)? Eml p...
