Steps:
Select lots of files (200 in my example).
Use File -> Delete to delete them
Everything locks up and the files are not deleted.
See SS.

Wow. Amazing. Best feature ever. 'course I say that about once a year with Everything

Thanks. I tried that and it still showed the 7454 files. So I deleted them. When I search the two directories, there are clearly still duplicates. It must be something about how I built the regex/fileexists. <J:\200009.Archives.SCSI.24gb | "J:\Backup\not_found\200009.Archives.SCSI.24gb"> f...

Background: The goal is not only to identify files that are a duplicate somewhere, but to verify that they have a duplicate in a specific drive/directory, so I don't delete all the duplicates without leaving at least one copy. example: test.txt exists in: c:\temp c:\temp\backup But doesn't exist in...

Thanks! Awesome as usual. I used it to verify that it is that Brave Browser that is abusing the file system.

I'm trying to use fileexists: to compare two drive/directories. This search doesn't work (notice the directory "not found" with a space in it): <J:\200009.Archives.SCSI.24gb | "J:\Backup\not found\200009.Archives.SCSI.24gb"> file: regex:J:\\200009.Archives.SCSI.24gb\\(.*) fileexi...

filelistpath: Search for files and folders that belong to a file list with the specified file list path and filename. Example: filelist-path:"c:\filelists\my filelist.efu" include-file-list: Search for a list of files from disk with the specified filename. Example: include-file-list:"...

It is great to see what all is going on. I found that Brave Browser sync writes to a file nigori.bin every few seconds. So I've turned it off! There is also a file "TransportSecurity" that is written multiple times a second. I can't tell how much exactly between updates, as there is no tim...

pic: dm-month:%month% dm-day:%day% I would like to be able to see all my pictures from this day in the past--for any year. I.e. on the 10th of July for any year, what all pictures did I take? I've never found away to extract the month or day from the TODAY function with regex, but I can set environm...

duh! thanks

NOTE: because excludes are the opposite of the search bar, they are ANDs instead of ORs like in my "!" example, so each directory must be a separate entry. Once I followed those instructions, it works perfectly!

Sometimes I don't want to have any results from the recycle bin, so Temporary Excludes is perfect for this! However, it doesn't seem to work with the setting: !c:\$Recycle.Bin !i:\$RECYCLE.BIN !j:\$RECYCLE.BIN !k:\$RECYCLE.BIN !l:\$RECYCLE.BIN When I search for "bluejeans !c:\$Recycle.Bin !i:\$...

Done. Note: I'm not sure what the correct term is for "frozen" / "stuck" . It is certainly indexing the properties (20% CPU, 6GB Ram, 150MB/s), however trying to perform a search doesn't work. Note that trying to "Pause Property Indexing" doesn't have any effect. Note t...

Note: Everything search is not responsive when Indexing. It is in "indexing properties" mode (and will be for about 4 days), and while I can navigate the menus (such as turning on console debugging), searches are not performed. Trying one will freeze the app for a few minutes. Using a new ...

What worked for me is:
"original search term" and dupe:

By adding the "and" the dupe: is done on the results of the original search term! Amazing!

When I export to a filelist, I get seven fields of data that show up in the File List Editor. I would like to have the fields be the same as the ones I have in the results, especially Path and MD5 (Thanks again for that!), but it would also be great to add the properties like length and longitude / ...

Another vote for MD5 (and/or xxHash) hashes in the background.

And yes, Everthing is the best Windows utility ever made!

Please add HEIC to the list of Picture formats when finding "pictures" and it would be great to also have them show in preview.

Please add support for HEIC (Apple's native iPhone format).
