Hi, It is corrected after couple of tries, but the process is definitely different, because when you add a new physical Drive, Everything is very fast. But with Google Drive, it freezes. I have restarted my PC due to other reasons and forgot about Everything, when I opened today it was working. Some...

Anybody else that experiences similar issues?

Hi, This question is not about shared folders that are located under shortcuts. (The solution given here is not working: https://www.voidtools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11499) This is about my files located under G:\My Drive. When I add that folder to my Everything, it stucks on the Scanning. https:...

I think ALT+4 is what I am looking for. I couldn't figure out CTRL shortcuts.
That would have been perfect if ALT+4 only widens the window in lateral direction instead of scaling it.
Thanks a lot!

Hi! I constantly play with column width, because it's sometime important to see the path, sometime the full name. So, if there was an option to select "Automatically fit the column width to the results after X sec", I would tick the box and select the X = 1. However, it might be hard to im...

I have 130 GB of files. There is some time until indexing is completed, but if I can get the index completed, it works flawlessly (until it needs a re-indexing due to a faulty shut down.)

nesedenyana

Unfortunately not.

nesedenyana

Hi, thanks for the answer.
It's not the case. All the settings are already as you said. But you can see the behaviour in the video here: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Aoa3tihSXbBwsagZpWDG2N2UvzaEcQ

Anybody else experiences freeze when double-clicking the PDF from content search results?

nesedenyana

I have 273 file change since yesterday evening.
The problem is actually, the indexing never stops and never ends now as I said in my previous comments. It is extremely slow now, it never ends.

nesedenyana

I have Sharepoint connected to my system which is also indexed by Everything. It gets updated quite a lot by my colleagues etc.
You can see the screenshot below, I increased the size. I don't know where I canssee the journal.

nesedenyana

Taken from another time where content indexing is at 61%.

nesedenyana

nesedenyana

Oh yeah, content is 0, understood.

No, the process moves on, but much much slowly. Since I close my PC at the end of day, I havent been able to complete one single indexing yet. Every day, we start from scratch.

nesedenyana

As you can see, Everything is indexing files that shouldn't index (content)

nesedenyana

Indexing significantly slowed down after this update. I am waiting to test the new update, but it's been a half-day since I started while the same number of files were done in half an hour before the update.

nesedenyana

Last part might be the problem. I am not sure how Everything is being closed during shutting down the PC. But it definitely reindexes after sudden shut downs.

nesedenyana

Content.

nesedenyana

Many files around 100 GB, including Sharepoint office files that change a lot (Maybe 100 files a day). But that shouldn't justify reindexing after restarr.

I am not sure but my feeling is, sometimes it cannot closw properly and cannot store the index in harddrive from eam, and it gets lost.

nesedenyana

Everything re-indexes every time I restrat my PC. This takes a huge RAM power from my PC and does not allow me to work. Can we not select the number of times the index will be refreshed or how can we solve this?

nesedenyana

Hi again. All problems are solved after I made sure iFilter is added using NirSoft. It must be a mistake due to some PDF viewer installations that my iFilter was set to plain text. After sorting out the iFilter issue, everything worked great in Everything. I have over 13000 documents indexed and wor...

nesedenyana

This is good news, right?

nesedenyana

Thanks..
I have added pdf to the PDF-XChange's iFilter. I don't know why, but even though I reinstalled the Adobe Pro, I cannot see their iFilter here.
https://prnt.sc/hpUFtTn0weyH
And also I don't know why once installed and now gone ilovepdf is still shown in the pdfs as TypeName.

nesedenyana

Another interesting observation I think: When I checked the registry key in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pdf\PersistentHandler as recommended by Adobe, the key that I found is explained in the link as plain text. {5E941D80-BF96-11CD-B579-08002B30BFEB} https://strontic.github.io/xcyclopedia/library/clsid_5e941...

nesedenyana

Thanks for that.
Very interesting, I have around 5 PDF viewer including the paid Adobe Pro, and no iFilter.

Here is the problematic setting, I believe. But, I am 100% sure that it wasn't the case before. It can be something I have done at last couple of weeks that changed this settings. Now, I will wait for couple of hours for Windows to index and see if it affects the Everything. https://prnt.sc/VR_5GD1F...

nesedenyana

I noticed Windows search also doesn't search inside the PDFs now. It just returns the results from Words and Excels. Will report back.

nesedenyana

Oh, does that affect? Because, I changed a lot.
In the recent months, I have changed between Adobe Pro, PDF X-Change and Sumatra PDF. I changed it back from Sumatra to Adobe couple days ago.

nesedenyana

Thanks a lot! Waiting impatiently. In these short months content searching became crucial part of my daily work as a design engineer.

nesedenyana

See the screenshot. Does this give us hope about future update?

Please compare the size shown in the Column 1 column with the size of the file. You can see that the sizes are exactly same. (The left is normal sizes, right is the code you sent) https://i.imgur.com/msaOwkK.png Please make sure Everything is installed correctly and running as a standard user: I ma...

Hi David,

Did you solve your problems with content search? I have the same problem with having >100 GB of PDFs that I want to search, but of course I cannot do that with regular RAMs, I need a database solution. Do you still use Archivarius?

nesedenyana

I might have underestimated the statement that Everything indexes the files in RAM. Because, what I can see is the ram used by Everything increases as the indexing continues, and when the file size reaches to something close to my ram capacity, everything starts to fail. So, this is really interesti...

nesedenyana

It's definitely something new.

nesedenyana

Another note: Without content indexing, content:"xxx" search results in downloading online files of Onedrive.

nesedenyana

Another clue: I have 500 GB PC but it says 1.35 TB here, I don't know why. No external SSD is connected.
https://prnt.sc/mx-rUy9jeHxT

nesedenyana

Of course, they are technical books and reports. With many many images. Content indexing worked before. Before, I wasn't specifying a specific folder, it was indexing everything that are present in the search folders. It worked smoothly. I cannot understand why it fails now. Maybe I can go back to a...

nesedenyana

You would need about 250GB of RAM to index that much PDF content with Everything.

Really? Is this how it works? So, for a typical PC with 16-32 GB ram, content index will only work for 16-32 GB of files?
Also: It worked before!!

nesedenyana

It's the same thing again. I have tried to content index a folder with 72 GB of content (PDFs). During indexing: https://prnt.sc/pSyER5zo9PoE After some point, the out of memory failure. I couldn't get a screenshot in each time, because it fails itself and closes, (and somehow Teams too.) Do you hav...

nesedenyana

I don't remember putting # there, but now removed. And trying to content index again,at least PC seems calmer during indexing. I will inform how it goes without properties.

nesedenyana

I understand, but why content indexing is not working for me?
With a 500 GB SSD and 16 GB Ram, it doesn't work, should it only work in the gamer PCs?

nesedenyana

This is the property page: https://prnt.sc/Nh2sInf0oQkW

nesedenyana

I might be misunderstanding how Everything works: So, can I use content:"XXX" search methodology without content indexing? I thought that content indexing was already for this? What it adds?
I already use content:"xxx" or content:<aaa bbb>

nesedenyana

Also, it doesn't obey the "Not Index" order

https://prnt.sc/sGdiV4lb1tQ-

nesedenyana

Please see that the software doesn't obey the folders selected.

Hi, I am not sure if these solves my problem. I have a 500 GB PC that' half of it PDFs. I had already the PDF, DOC, XLSX filter on. I have also changed it to index only the user profile. But, already all my files are there. With my current PC conditions: Is there any other settings that I can tweak ...

nesedenyana

Hi,
The db file increases in size exceptionally and at the end of indexing (with contents) it fails with out of memory file. My PC is 16 GB Ram and 500 GB SSD.
https://prnt.sc/Fc22NylBHbZD

nesedenyana

What do you mean by loaded into ram? Isn't this like a database that we reach when we use the content search? As you can see I am not doing any content search at the moment of screenshot. Also, I was talking about disk usage, not the ram usage.

nesedenyana

Hi, Since indexing the content is an amazing job, I am OK to see Everything index and I am OK with PC being slow during that time. But, even if Everything is not indexing (not showing at the bottom right corner), it still uses huge disk process. Of course I have taken the screenshot from a peak poin...
