-or-

In the Everything 1.5 alpha, right click the Size column header and click Find Size Duplicates...

Everything 1.5.0.1253a will now remember the sort order for previous navigation history.

Everything 1.5.0.1253a add some more mouse ini settings:

xbutton1_action=x
xbutton2_action=x

where x can be:

0 = none
1 = navigate back
2 = navigate forward

mbutton_action=x

where x can be:

0 = none
1 = universal scroll

Everything 1.5.0.1253a fixes an issue with runcount:0

Everything was incorrectly treating files with a run count of 0 as unknown.

Indexing mobile devices and SD cards is very very slow.
I'll look into improving indexing performance for these devices.

Will do.

Just working out some other issues.

I will post an update soon.

Note: enabling will override any Everything 1.4 folder context menu item.

You can install Everything 1.4 and Everything 1.5 folder context menus side by side.

Everything 1.5 will use the "Search Everything 1.5a..." menu name, while Everything 1.4 will use the "Search Everything..." menu name.

To add Everything 1.5 to your folder right click menus:

In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
Click the General tab on the left.
Check Show Search Everything folder context menu item.
Click OK.

Thank you for your feedback HASJ,

Here are the file types with native support in Everything.

I'll add MOV, TS, M4v and ASF to my list to support.

For now, you will need a third party Property System handler to retrieve meta data for these file types.

Please check for any other installations of Everything that might be interfering with your normal installation. Some third party tools bundle Everything.exe which interfere with your normal installation. Are there any other Everything.exe files on your computer? If you are using the x64 version of E...

Replacing the Start Menu search with Everything is currently not supported.

I will consider an option to do this.

Thank you for your suggestion.

Thank you for the bug report JTCGiants56,

I'm looking into the issue.

Everything does not follow folder symbolic links. I will consider an option to follow folder symbolic links. However, do not expect this to be efficient.
