Re-index after (dis)connecting external drive

Post by AlexKwakIT »

Hi, every time after I connect or disconnect an external usb-drive, Everything will re-index my complete system. Due to large disks with a lot of data, this takes several minutes.
I already excluded the drive letter, but no luck.
Is there something else I can do?

Regards,
Alex.

Please try the Everything 1.4 beta, re-indexing is faster.

-or-

To exclude this drive:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the NTFS tab.
  • Uncheck Auto include fixed volumes.
  • Uncheck Auto include removable volumes.
  • Click OK.
-or-

Enable offline volumes in Everything 1.3:
Keep offline volumes in the index
