Crash when removing location currently being scanned

Post by matt.baker »

Added a network drive to the index list. Took too long for it to index and didn't display any progress such as which sub-directory it was currently scanning. I went back to the options while it was still indexing and removed the drive from the list and applied the changes. Everything then became unresponsive and the only option was to kill the process.

Thank you for the crash report.

What version of Everything are you using?

This hang often occurs with Everything 1.4 as the database access is blocked when changing the settings while it is indexing.
This will make Everything appear frozen.

Everything should recover after some time.

Showing the indexing progress is on my TODO list.
