Might you get more results simply by being less specific? Granted you'll then come across unwanted results too. So instead of excluding: -asp -cf -htm -html -jsp -php -mid -mod -nfo -sap -txt -xm -xmi don't exclude anything. And instead including: (alac|ape|ogg|flac|mp2|mp3|mp4|mp+|mpc|mpp|tta|wav|w...

CUT a file (do not change focus in the results list) Alt+Back & PASTE into some other directory say, oops. OOPS. you made a mistake so CUT that just pasted file & then Alt+FWD now Paste the file back to where it was initially That operation fails, because when you Alt+FWD - at that point, fo...

CUT a file
(do not change focus in the results list)
Alt+Back & PASTE into some other directory
Alt+FWD

- at that point, focus is NOT (not in the results list)

Alt+Back
Alt+FWD

- at this point, focus is restored to the results list

I guess I'm expecting a selection that had been set to remain set, even if the item that had been selected is no longer there.

So if the results list is selected, it should remain selected even when some action, external or otherwise, causes it to be in a "not selected" state.

Just noting... An (Automated) [Everything] Restart may ignore (preexisting) command line switches. any number of Everything 'Restart' prompts affect things like a pre-existing -read-only session, such that on a 'Restart', the -read-only is not enforced, so that on a subsequent Quit, the .db is re-wr...

with a quick look, that (robocopy alone) is looking good :-) (come to think of it, FreeFileSync forums has probably mentioned that before. i'll have to look...) & thinking more about it, odd that it even does as it does. but then, i guess if you look at it that you're copying an "item"...

Explain the file names?
Real names would help.

What would be the search you're using or looking to use to find said file names?

A Bit Rate (Property) column can be added.
(Needs Everything 1.5.)

Do something like add a Folder Index that duplicates one of your automatically indexed drives?

I'm apt to use the Add Columns..., figuring it is quicker (for me) to go there, & filter, to find my wanted Property rather then picking a particular category & seeing if my wanted Property is included therein.

That said, don't really care the the categorized lists (also) exist.

RE-DATE.bat, copies, waits for you to make changes, then re-dates in one "go". :: RE-DATE.bat - copies a directory tree /structure/ (no files) :: allowing one to make changes to the source directories :: then "re-dates" the source directory date/time back to what they were before...

Not particularly concerned about Created.
Though appears robocopy does retain that too.

Everything Version 1.4

You'll need 1.5 alpha to be able to add something like the, Size on disk Property.

Deleting files without touching a directories date? When Voidhash runs, it does not touch directory time/date Conceptually, how do you go about this?

There should be some when you plugin or unplug your H: drive, or when it wakes from sleep. Oops, sorry about that. H: is not a removable device, so there is no plug in nor unplug. It is a fixed disk (spinner), that (I suppose, & in particular when the [house] temperature is colder) is too slow ...

Speed should not be a factor if you're wanting stability.

Stability, 1.4.

1.5, if you want the additional features available that do not exist in 1.4.
1.5 has been stable enough for me.

(I'm of the opinion that everything is Everything & for anyone who does not know what Everything is, then they certainly do not know everything & they need to be taught, correctly, just what Everything is.

What I proposed would give you, 'New Foldertree After Merge'. I suppose ? something similar could be done in a loop? Where every directory name that contains an "extension" (so, "00 Excel 03.SAR"), you could extract it to a parent directory, named the same, sans the "extensi...

Is Everything being run "As Administrator" (rather then using the Everything Service)?

I'll say it wrong, but you cannot d&d between a User level & an Admin level application.

(Just noting; depth:, parent-count:, & parents: are synonyms.)

C:\TMP\BRU\9000 is the root in this case and has a depth of 0

depth: will match the internal folder depth, not the number of backslashes (\)

Ah, &

root:

even shows that.
Likewise a mapped drive or SUBST would behave similarly.

If the depth count is really important:

parents: (aka depth:) is important, as a feature.

The fact that an indexed folder acts "differently" - no.

Just noting...

However, USB drives and other devices are frequently changed, and the index remains from the previous device. Manually setting the update frequency

I don't think any of them are doing it (with most not returning results).

Just noting... parents: with an Indexed Folder Path , acts relative to the basename of the Path so if you set up an Indexed Folder of: C:\TMP\BRU\9000\ a parents:2 would find files/directories relative to the basename of the folder path, so relative to the \9000\ directory, so things like; \9000\DIR...
