Do you have any news regarding adding the option to enable/disable the Index Folder list?
Thank you

It's still on my TODO list.

I'm not sure it will be useful though as it will require a rebuild.

Temporary excludes might be a better solution.
Adding check boxes to the temp exclude items is also still on my TODO list.

I am using mostly local computer search.
When I want to search also on the network I am using folders (this method it's better for me than any other).
When I use it I have to input all the time all links.
A checkbox will be a huge time saving.

Did you try the Temporary excludes @void suggested?

Add all your network folders to Temporary excludes and toggling Menu:Index > Enable Temporary Excludes will include/exclude them.
Looks like a perfect fit to me.

(or use a filter; they still work in Everything 1.5 :))

This is working without map network drive?
