Folder shown in Everything cannot be accessed
Posted: Sat Mar 23, 2024 2:43 pm
Hi,
not sure if I should be posting this question here (as it may not be an Everything-related phenomenon), but let's see. It can then be kicked in the off topic subforum, obviously.
Got a NTFS formatted disk. A folder is shown in Everything that cannot be accessed (File Explorer and/or CMD) or removed. The folder is empty. After a database rebuild the folder is still there. Ran chkdsk /r /f for a check, but no errors.
Is there a way to determine at a lower level how/why Everything reports the folder to be there while Windows says it is not? Is there another way to determine the status of this folder?
regards, Kazzy
