Re: Everything crashes when I search for a specific word

yes, did that too and it still persists. It is so odd that only this particular word is crashing it.

Everything crashes when I search for a specific word

Hi All - Everything on my PC crashes every time I search for the word "Price", without quotes. This is very odd. Can someone tell me what could be happening here and how to fix it? I am using version 1.5.0.1537a, 64 bit portable version.
Thanks.

Re: Indexing schedule

Well, I just want indexing done once a day and Everything to use last indexed database as opposed to indexing constantly because it consumes significant enough cpu, memory, and disk usage when it is reindexing that it is interfering with my day time work. It would be nice to just have it index at th...

Indexing schedule

I suppose Everything indexes when the app is launched and periodically (how often?). My questions are: 1. Does everything reindex only incrementally when it indexes periodically? 2. Is it possible to schedule Everything to index only at a specified time of the day for example at 10 PM daily when I'm...

Too much memory

Everything search shows as consuming 300 MB of memory. Why is this so high and how can reduce this memory footprint? I guess it may be due to what I selected to index on the index tab in options. What are the optimal settings to have on index tab to get the best out of everything search and still ha...

exclude folders settings

I want to add all my external drives to exclude folders list like E:\, F:\, etc. but, I can only do that if I have the drive connected. How can I add to exclude folders all external drives drive letters even if the drive is not connected?

Re: disable indexing upon logon

Thanks. Upon starting, the message on the application window says scanning C: drive, so does it mean everything is creating the entire index again from scratch or only incremental? Can I tell everything to index only what is missing/new or changed from the index it already built last time instead, o...

disable indexing upon logon

Hello,
Everything starts indexing every time I logon to my PC. It takes so much time and resources that for the first 15 minutes after logging on, I cannot do anything with my PC. Is there a way to address this issue?

Re: exclude external drives from indexing

thanks for the reply. I think this works after the fact i.e., after I connect the drive which is not helping because per your suggestion I removed the drive and unchecked include in journal (the drive letter was F) and afterwards this same external drive showed as G and everything started indexing a...

exclude external drives from indexing

How can I exclude and prevent external drives (USB Flash drive, external hard drives, etc.) from indexing? Can I preemptively specify to index only my C drive and nothing else?

indexing on computer startup is slowing computer

Everytime my computer starts and I logon to it, Everything consumes high disk use, I'm guessing because it is rebuilding index. How can I defer this activity to say 10 minutes after logon?
