Not indexing all folders

Post by snommit »

It worked in previous versions, but now it's no longer indexing all folders. In the screenshot below it refuses to index EL, GB, Leica, O Drive, RA, etc. I'm having to add them individually as folders for it to index them. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

I haven't been able to reproduce the issue my end.

What version are you using? (Help -> About)

Have you accidentally unchecked "index subfolders" for the main project_Archive folder?

Apologies for the late response. I'm using 1.5.0.1371a. Yes, I have 'Index Subfolders' enabled for the main folder.

Could you please send some debug output:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, check Verbose.
  • From the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, check Start Debug Logging.
  • From the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Folders tab on the left.
  • Select the first \\server\Project_Archive folder.
  • Click Rescan Now.
    ---'Rescanning \\server\Project_Archive' will be shown at the top right of this window.
    ---Please wait one minute, or wait until this 'Rescanning \\server\Project_Archive' status disappears.
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, click Stop Debug Logging.
    ---The Everything Debug Log will open in Notepad.
  • Please save this file to the Desktop and upload here.
The logs will show why Everything is not scanning any subfolders.



Are you excluding any files/folders under Tools -> Options -> Exclude?

Submitted! The rescanning would normally take a few hours since it's over 100 million items, so I let the debugger run for a few mins before stopping it. I'll run another one for the whole duration as well just in case you need that too. I have nothing excluded, and I actually disabled it, thinking it may be impacting something.

Thank you for the log.

The basic log shows Everything has started scanning your folder.
No errors are reported.

Unfortunately, Everything is not in verbose debug mode.
Rescan activity is only reported in verbose debug mode.



Could you please resend the verbose debug log:
  • Please wait for any existing rescan to complete.
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, check Verbose.
  • From the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, check Start Debug Logging.
  • From the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Folders tab on the left.
  • Select the first \\server\Project_Archive folder.
  • Click Rescan Now.
    ---'Rescanning \\server\Project_Archive' will be shown at the top right of this window.
    ---Please wait one minute, or wait until this 'Rescanning \\server\Project_Archive' status disappears.
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, click Stop Debug Logging.
    ---The Everything Debug Log will open in Notepad.
  • Please save this file to the Desktop and upload here.
The verbose debug logs will contain more information.
