Titles of some academic papers have those characters. If the title I copy and paste has one or more of the characters, even if I have the file, Everything will not return any result. If they have a function in Everything, can it be turned off? Or add custom characters to ignore? If it's too much of...

Since a file name can't contain any of these characters, is there a way to ignore them in search box?
At least ignore the ones that don't have any other functions.

As you can see above, even in dark mode, sometimes it pops up white menus.
But a restart can easily fix it.

Set sort by Size in videos, switch to Documents, you get sort by Name.

No matter how you do it, Documents always ignore previous sorting set.

What happens when you place the cursor in the search bar and press CTRL + A ?

It select all the text. But that doesn't fix the problem. It's just a workaround.

Are you running Everything "as Administrator" or are you using the Everything Service?

That's the name of the folder, as you can see in the pictue.

I'm using the Everything Service.

I'm looking into the issue.

It's probably because I changed UI scale, bigger text means smaller space.

I don't know if a standalone English installer is really necessary, especially a multilingual installer includes English and the size is not that much bigger.

I've been using 1.5a in Chinese with language file from 1.4.

So far, so good.

But everytime I update to a newer version of 1.5a using the Installer file, language automatically reset to English.

I don't know what happened.

How did this come about? As in how did you get a filename with an ending Newline as part of the name? And with that Windows "copy" copied the filename+NL & likewise was then able to paste that into Everything? I don't drag mouse to select text, that's so inefficient. I triple-click th...

If you copy a search word with a Newline at the end, then paste it on Everything's search bar, it'll automatically add <> at the beginning and the end. Look:

Maybe some hints as to what it is not doing correctly? And is it (at least) "correct" per the Unicode Collation Algorithm ? Screenshot_2.png This is an example of how messed up sorting by name is. I didn't find anything wrong with UCA though. What I did find is that Unicode doesn't suppor...

I suggest Everything can offer a solution for filename collision during renaming files.

Instead of a pop-up window saying there is an error, Everything can give me an option to add a suffix or automatically adds one for me.

It sounds like Everything is not detecting the deletion of ABC.mp4, hence the stale file information. If you are using folder indexing then it is possible Everything missed the deletion (too many changes occurred in a short period). Everything should rebuild folder indexes daily. If you are using N...

That could happen under certain circumstances. In recent versions there were a lot of improvements in this regard.

Say I have a video file named ABC.mp4, I also have a different version of that video named ABC1.mp4.

If I delete ABC.mp4, and rename ABC1.mp4 to ABC.mp4, the created date and modified date also changes to the deleted file in Everything.
