Find duplicates of files in 1 folder anywhere else on the PC

Example: X:\Download\Folder files1.txt files2.txt files3.txt files4.txt etc. Rightclick 'Folder' search for duplicates of the files (files1.txt, files2.txt, etc) anywhere else. R...

Re: Sessions
Ehm ... dumb question, but, with me, there is no session .json in Everything (install version). Portable does have a session and backup, the install only a backup. I launched and exited the installed version a few times, but a session is not created. (Session store = True) SnagIt-29042024 064623.png

In my case, running Everything (installed) and Everything (portable) side by side, it will not help to update both .ini's then?
Where portable is launched:

Re: Everything is not exiting when I close it
Out of curiosity...
How about an option to add a "Net stop" command to File Exit ?
so, like
net stop "Everything (Portable)"
and
net stop "Everything (1.5a)"
Would that help?

Probably I am overlooking something: in Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks, clicking on either 'Name' or 'Search' does not result in sorting.
Right click the folder 'Bookmarks' (left) does not show anything relating to sorting.
Or maybe it is on the TODO list?

One rootfolder with -many- subfolders.
Files are sorted by path length.
Quite a number exceed the max of 255 characters.
Now, I would like to find and replace text in the path so as to shorten it. Some texts are double, or simply not necessary.
Any suggestions?
