1372a still does monitor my volume C - should I rescan it and report back?

And once again my volume C has stopped being indexed; a few weeks ago. Then, a couple of days ago, I have upgraded Everything to version 1.5.0.1371a x64 Portable- but it did not fix itself

And so: are you ready for a new set of logs from me?

Thy Grand Voidinesss

It seems that version 1.5.0.1371a x64 Portable is capable of showing me also files with subtitle tracks when video files are in MP4 format

So thank you for this update
