Re: Excluding folders from being indexed not working with CLI
external drives can get mapped to same drive letter Specifically set a drive letter to specific (external) drives. And if set to a high enough letter (such that letter collisions aren't apt to occur), the drive letter will (essentially) be static. (Alternatively, USBDLM - USB Drive Letter Manager f...

Re: Excluding folders from being indexed not working with CLI
Everything will recursively scan all folders. Folders matching your exclude filter are not scanned . Scanning a folder will find all child files/folders. This is the slow part. Setting a file filter will not help performance. A file filter will simply exclude files from your EFU output, they are st...

Re: How is Everything so efficient?
I think one of the keys is this is still in c++. I actually don't even know if it uses an in-memory db or custom data structures, they must be getting flushed to disk pretty frequently too, plus it has to keep updating them with Windows fs events. I bet the current view stores a list a of affected n...

Requests/questions about 1.5
I'm trying to use Everything as m primary search tool as well as disc cataloger, as I find it works wonderfully in that capacity. With 1.5's new features it is even better. I posted previously about how I use it - https://www.voidtools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=9064&p=31467#p31467 A few...

Re: Is is possible to use Everything SDK from Nodejs?
Thank you, thats very helpful. I will try this out as soon as I get some time. I've read on this forum that the SDK is not going to be as fast as the app itself, due to overhead of IPC, but we'll see.

Re: My scripts to catalog and browse multiple drives
So your script does a lot more and is obviously a bit more advanced, I'm learning a few things from it. I think I'll steal the code for drive label/enumerating (which I previously stole from stackoverflow :D) and some wmic tricks. Also I didn't now you could have exclude_folders etc in an ini file. ...

Is is possible to use Everything SDK from Nodejs?
I am a Nodejs developer and would like to use the SDK, since it can be used from Python, C# etc it shouldn't be hard but I haven't seen any examples etc.

My scripts to catalog and browse multiple drives
I've just started using Everything. I have a lot of external drives and this is a good tool to catalog them. I wrote a simple script that will catalog a attached hard drive to a efu file. I know this is already built in, what I added was to generate the file name using the drive label+serial number ...

New Everything user, looking for some advice
I've used Everything before but never looked into it too much. Now I see it is a lot more powerful with cmd line, efu files etc. So I think it can be used for much more than search - it can replace disc catalog programs, folder size programs etc since all this knowledge is already stored in it (for ...
