commandline start with filter does not work?

Post by Bunnie »

Hi,

When a filter is used like Audio or Picture, then Everything remembers the filter all next searches until explicity choosen the filter "Everything"
Even after a restart.

The commandline I use is

Code: Select all

start D:\Progra~3\Everything\Everything.exe -filter "Everything" -startup 
But the -filter argument has no effect

What am I doing wrong?

Because no window is shown with -startup, the -filter command line options has no effect.

To always use the Everything filter by default:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Home tab.
  • Change filter to Everything.
  • Click OK.
The next release of Everything will correctly update the 'use last value' for filter when -startup and -filter is specified.
