Off-Line Drives - Retain Data on reindex
Posted: Sat Oct 14, 2023 10:32 am
When you reindex, for example I just clicked on the index Folder Size which I use sometimes and then remove, in the scan that follows you lose the offline drive files/folders. But that info is very useful.
It would be handy to retain those but mark for rebuild whenever they become online again. In the case of adding e.g. Folder Size it may be a case for display etc of marking per drive fields that are absent or adding a new column of info filled with a special value indicating absence of data (e.g. all bits set for Folder Size). On removing a column I presume a rescan is not actually required anyway (though perhaps it does one) just a modification of the existing data.
