Search for msiexec.exe incomplete results

Post by kenstp »

When I search for msiexec.exe in Win7_x64 or Win10_x86, Everything finds the file at Windows\winsxs\ but not at Windows\SysWOW64\ or Windows\System32\ though it does in Win7_x86

That file is a hard link.
Hard links probably not detected in the version of Everything you are running.

Give Everything version 1.4 Beta a try.

Might as well link to the most current version (apparently an unofficial beta?):

Thanks for that, Version 1.4.0.716b finds all instances of the file, whereas the Version 1.3.4.686 I was using doesn't.
