Currently not possible with stock Windows/Everything.
It might be possible with third party property system shell extensions.

An option to display and search the average image color in Everything is on my TODO list.

Closing one instance will break the other instance. It's not fatal, the other instance will restart the service after one minute. Everything will not see any file system changes to NTFS volumes while the Everything Service is stopped. You can enable stop_service_on_exit in both inis. I recommend lea...

Add preview: to your search: ext:jpg preview: -or- Use a multi-line bookmark search with the /show-preview search command: /show-preview ext:jpg (Press Alt + Enter to add a new line) preview: /show-preview /hide-preview /toggle-preview home_remove_layout home_layout home_add_layout

In Notepad , from the File menu, click Open . Select your Everything.ini in the same location as your Eve...

Thank you for the issue report tuska,

I will have this fixed in the next alpha update.

For now, please bind Alt + F10 to your File | Exit command command.

Thank you for your feedback nikov, Can you consider adding an option such that, new tabs/windows inherit settings from the config?

Good idea.

I will add a -restore-previous-session command line option and have the installer use this when restarting Everything.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Sorry for any down time.

Looks great!

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for your feedback marcus, I will consider a MRU list / jumplist at the top of the result list. Sorting by run count kind-of does this already. (View -> Sort by -> Run count) You can set the run count by right clicking a file and clicking on Set run count. Opening a file from Everything wil...

I will consider keyboard chords. Thank you for the suggestion. For now, please consider Autohotkey and either: call Everything.exe with -command <id> -or- Send your Everything window a WM_COMMAND: SendMessage, 0x111, <command-id>,,, ahk_class EVERYTHING -command <id> Command IDs

I will limit the search history text to 64 characters in the next alpha update.

For example, to set the date created, and the date modified to become the date created and the date accessed to become the date modified, it is necessary to call the dialogue 3 times m...

Yes, Insert function has been removed. It's too bloated. 99% of the functions are property search functions. I will add a Search builder dialog at some stage. I am working on Ctrl + space to autocomplete all search functions too. For now, please try the following: Right click on a result list column...

I'm not sure what you are asking for here.

What do you mean by highlighted?

Are you looking for a command to deselect all files?

Thank you for the suggestion.

I'm seeing the expected coloring here.

Could you please send a screenshot.

Could you please send your about:config to support@voidtools.com

New windows/tabs will use your default search settings under Tools -> Options -> Home.

I'm curious, where did you get the * from?

Should I add support for *?
