The window that Everything displays asking the user to choose "Run as Admin", "Install Everything Service", or "Do Not index NTFS" has "Run as Admin" first & pre-selected. Might it be better to put the "Install Everything Service" first (pre-sele...

You might be running into, http://www.voidtools.com/forum/viewtopi ... 418#p15418.

Tried both 1.4.0.713b & 1.4.1.727b. Same results either way.

Another example, which may make this easier to understand, the search: \downloads foo.mkv is two search terms, \downloads AND foo.mkv , only \downloads will match paths (because it contains a \), whereas foo.mkv will not match paths. Just to understand the search syntax better: \downloads (or path:...

32-bit version looks to be working. (Running sandboxed, Win7 x64) looks to store its settings in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\voidPad.

Nice. I like small and very fast, even with large files.

But I am having trouble with the options. Tab & Font work but Context Menu does not. Also, is there any to save these settings between executions of the program? (windows 7 64bit) or do they have to be reset each time?

Gooly - You say that you have made sure that the "Run as administrator" is unchecked in both the Everything's options and in the shortcut's compatibility tab - have you checked the properties of the module itself - everything.exe - to see if "Run as administrator" is unchecked, a...

Install Everything 1.4.0.713b Beta and then try it.

froggie, But to satisfy my curiosity, why did those files "hid" from me? Are they files that haven't been completely processed when I deleted them? Corrupt files? They aren't even hidden files. Basic explaination: Say there are two userids - U1 and U2. Windows gives U1 different security ...

froggie

froggie, will try what you suggested. But I already identified the three different Recycle Bins on C:/ for three Users. So Everything is telling the truth - these files exist on the disk. If your want to clean them up, first try to delete them from Everything (may not work depending on security rig...

froggie

As therube said, there can be more than one directory in the recycle bin. Each directory belongs to a different Userid or a different iteration of a Userid(from various causes). Try this: Delete a file (any file - you can create and delete one for this test). If you look in your recycle bin you shou...

Thank you all for your helpful suggestions. Just to confirm: I understand that Everything does not search for a string within a file but that capability is in the works. Do I have that right? ...wdc No, it is available. Version 1.4.0.713b,see https://www.voidtools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=...

I confirmed this on Windows 7 with the latest 64 bit versions of 7-ZIP and Everything 1.4.0.713b x64. 7-ZIp was set to associate with .zip files and .7z files (the native 7-Zip format) and to use its cascaded context menu option. Right-clicking a .zip file from the Everything result menu produced th...

It is possible that the Windows is running out of memory. Have you tried closing all other programs first? What is the size of your paging file and is there free space on that volume?

Hi Void -

The regex documentation does not show any backslash escapes, but it appears that \. and \+ are implemented. Are there others? Are there any plans for more? (\\,\s and \d could be useful).

froggie

Hmm, I might have VeraCrypt setup incorrectly.

When I mount a VeraCrypt volume I see two volumes.

You might take a look at https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/workitem ... edByLink18

it might be a VeraCrypt bug that is creating the problem.

Read Help>Search Syntax from the Everything menu. Note that a space is not just white space -- it is the AND operator.

Also read Help>Everything Help and select Searching on the left side. There are examples at the bottom.

Thank you so much. That was the clue I needed. I changed the key for the Acrobat entry from OPEN to EDIT and now it appears in Everything's context menu. I have Reader XI and Acrobat 8.

I am using (from "About Everything") Version 1.3.4.686 (x64). I also tried context_menu_type=3, thinking it might have something to do with the problem. As far as I can tell, it is not a shell extension, just these entries in the registry: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document.11\shell] @=&...

How about right click => Copy full name to clipboard and then paste in an empty .txt document

Try the 1.3.3.658 beta version - it works for me with your test cases. Be sure to use the Everything Service option.

If you check the box Everything Service under General in Options, you should not need to start with admin privilege.

Look at http://forum.voidtools.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1970 It has the search syntax for the latest (beta) version. About halfway down are the details for date support.
