Uncheck Allow multiple instances.
Click OK.

I am working on custom file lists for the next release of "Everything".

Custom file lists will allow you to index and search single folders at a time.

This will be possible with the next release of "Everything" by running Everything.exe with the -loaddb and -quit command line options.

You could schedule this with task scheduler or place a shortcut in your start-up folder.

"Everything" only keeps file IDs or File Reference Numbers (FRNS) in memory for folders.

You can use the latest alpha release to view folder FRNs.

Although possible, "Everything" does not keep a record of FRNs for files due to large memory requirements.

Fixed for the next release. I think there is a second problem: some of my harddisks are "mounted" as subdirectory on drive D:, e.g. d:\_HDEXT\graphics I've tried to exclude the directory d:\_HDEXT but it seems, that Everything ignore this. You will need to use the latest alpha release to i...

What version of Windows are you running?

Try running your mouse software with administrative privileges.

It will still work.

However, you can expect the memory usage to climb over 100mb with over 2 million files.

For a rough guide you can expect roughly 50mb ram usage per 1 million files.

CPU usage should always be minimal, no matter the number of files you have.

Depends how many files you have.

Less than 2 million you should be fine.

Write some further explanation concerning the options on the "Volumes" tab in the options window. I have updated http://support.voidtools.com/everything/Indexing to include a little more information about each option. Should it not work without the USN Logging Journal and just reading the...

Maybe you accidentally pressed the match case keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Q.

Does searching for Big Sky find any results?

Do you have match case enabled from the search menu?

Using regex: * Matches the preceding element zero or more times. For example, ab*c matches "ac", "abc", "abbbc", etc. [xyz]* matches "", "x", "y", "z", "zx", "zyx", "xyzzy", and so on. \(ab\)* matches...

only 32bit libraries are supported.

I have added supported 64bit libraries to my "Things to do" list.

Code: Select all

*.

is a special search that will only match files with no extension.

What results were you expecting?

This has been fixed for the next release of "Everything".

I also have plans to add support for Windows 95/98/98SE for the next release.
You will need to use the custom file lists to index volumes in 95/98/98se.

Added to my "Things to do" list.

"Everything" saves changes to the Everything.db file after WM_QUIT has been received.

Please note that "Everything" does not save changes to the database if you run it in debug mode.

Ctrl + Numpad + in the result list auto sizes the columns.
Ctrl + Numpad + in the search edit increases the text size.

This will be customizable in the next release of "Everything".

I would recommend running multiple instances of "Everything". Create another instance of "Everything", for example: Everything.exe -instance HTTP Setup which files and folders you wish to include or exclude from the exclude options for the HTTP instance. See -instance and Indexin...

You will be able to index files for offline use in the next release of "Everything".

Only ASCII characters are supported when regex is enabled.

Unicode regex support is on my "Things to do" list.

Windows NT4 and Windows 2000/XP: The F12 key is reserved for use by the debugger at all times, so it should not be registered as a hot key. Even when you are not debugging an application, F12 is reserved in case a kernel-mode debugger or a just-in-time debugger is resident.

Well, mounting as a virtual file is the simplest option I guess

I think so too.

This would be easier to accomplish on linux, right?

Yes.

I have plans to add optional file content indexing in a future release of "Everything".

I am considering the option to show a folder tree panel view similar to Windows Explorer.

Deleted files are stored in the mft, until re-allocated.

I will consider the option to show deleted files and locked files.

I have implemented the option to include any folder (network share) for the next release of "Everything".

Some menu items do not work, and the list tab does nothing.

You would be better off sticking with the alpha.

The latest alpha version should fix these issues.

I love the program and am happy to try the beta - but will I just be getting new problems?

The alpha version is stable, however, there are some incomplete features.

Unfortunately, No.

It is not possible to include another computer's Everything.db yet.

You will be able to include another computer's Everything.db in your local index for the next release of "Everything".

Fixed for the next release of "Everything".

-filename, -path and -parentpath will move the cursor to the end of the search string and no longer highlight the text.

and

Mounting the split files as a virtual file/drive is possible.

AFAIK, merging the two mft entries would only be possible if the first file is aligned to the NTFS allocation unit size (4096 bytes by default).

You might like the prototype multiple file renamer now.
