How many errors, is it just the one error?
Is there anything that might have happened to the monitoring state?
For example, suspending the computer, or plugging in / removing a drive?

you will have to add the following line to the end of Everything.ini file:

Code: Select all

filter_toolbar_visible=1

A lot of the toolbar features are still being implemented.

I will supply the updated help file when the alpha is released as an official beta.

For basic search syntax, please see:

Could be a timing issue.

Some minor issues still need fixing and some missing features need to be implemented...

I am aware of the issue and it has been fixed for the next release of "Everything". It is caused by old update events firing when a monitor is not ready. For example, putting the computer to sleep. The problem causes the monitors to stop. Restart "Everything" to restart the monitors. You can optiona...

I have not had any luck installing MS Live Mesh..
I have added this to my "Things to do" list.

You can add a context menu item to open a command prompt for folders by adding the following registry entry: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\Command Prompt\command] @="cmd %1" Save the above as a .reg file and run it. You can do the same for files with the follow...

Please run "Everything" in debug mode.

What is displayed in the debugging console when you try to "Search Everything..." from this folder?

everything_hwnd = FindWindow("EVERYTHING_TASKBAR_NOTIFICATION",0);

I used the value returned by System.Diagnostics.Process.MainWindowHandle, which is described as "Gets the window handle of the main window of the associated process". I thought this fit the bill Yes, this should be the handle we are after, it is probably using the wrong endianess like you suggested...

Please make sure you exit "Everything" completely when changing the Everything.ini file.

To exit Everything:

Right click the "Everything" system notification icon.

1. Is this structure for unicode searches (with double byte characters) valid or am I still missing something? The unicode part is correct, however.. 0xC00B3F00 [3221962496] This looks like a pointer to a CWnd It should be a HWND handle. Try using ReplyWindow.m_hWnd instead of ReplyWindow. Is your ...

Sorting by run frequency will be available in the next release of "Everything".

Sorry, I am not familiar with the .NET syntax.. The search string MUST follow the IPC query struct. Pointers are not allowed in the WM_COPYDATA messages. Use the following IpcQuery structure public struct IpcQuery { public IntPtr ReplyHandle; public IntPtr ReplyCopyDataMessage; public int SearchFlag...

See Option to freeze database for a possible solution.

I have plans to make this a feature in a future release.

SendMessage() should return 1 when the IPC query request is successful. Check the Errorlog.txt file in your "Everything" installation folder for any errors messages. You might be getting one of the following errors: The IPC query structure is too small. bad query size in COPYDATA_IPC_QUERY cds->cbDa...

FAT32 support is on my "Things to do" list.

Currently the layout is fixed.

Only the images and style sheet can be customized.
(See http://www.voidtools.com/Everything/wik ... HTTP_files).

I have added: "Make a customizable html template for the HTTP server" to my "Things to do" list.

The USN Change Journal is used to monitor file system changes. Since the USN Change Journal does not correctly monitoring hard links it is not possible at this time to keep the database up-to-date realtime. You would have to re-indexing all your hardlinks to update the database. (This could be quite...

1. How about new option: selecting by clicking not only on filename but on whole search result i.e. on path, attributes, file type etc... On whole line i mean. It would be very comfortable! Entire row selection is on my "Things to do" list. 2. Pls make search input line symmetrical. It has several ...

Junction points will be indexed and monitored. Only the first hardlink of a file will be indexed and monitored. Files that are not the first hardlink will not be indexed or monitored. This is a limitation of the USN Change Journal. I have plans to index all hard links in the future. However, you wil...

"Everything" does not require the Windows indexing service.

"Everything" uses the USN Change Journal for updating.

The USN Change Journal is maintained by the NTFS driver.

Is it possible to get the result your after by customizing the http server files in "Everything"? See http://www.voidtools.com/Everything/wiki/Customizing for more information.

close_window_on_esc=0 should work for "Everything" 1.2.1.371.

See http://www.voidtools.com/Everything/wik ... dow_on_esc for more info.

The close_window_on_esc and minimize_to_tray ini options will be available in the GUI for the next release of "Everything".

Indexing any folder in Windows will be available in a future release of "Everything".

However, indexing folders will not be as fast as indexing NTFS volumes and you will need to manually update the indexes.

I will consider adding columns to the volumes list.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Yes, there should be a * after the .

Please try (with match path enbaled):

Code: Select all

temp\\.*docx

See http://www.voidtools.com/faq.php#How_do_I_use_regex for the basic regex syntax.

"Everything" will not match path when you include a backslash (\) when regex is enabled. You will need to manually enable match path when regex is enabled. I have fixed this for the next release of "Everything". I do have plans to add some search switches in a future release to over-ride the current...

You will need to share each drive, or

Error 50 means unsupported.

I am guessing the USN Journal is not implemented with the default NTFS driver for WINE..?

I have plans to add the option to mount the current "Everything" search as a folder in Windows Explorer in a future release of "Everything".

I will also be adding more explorer-like options to the "Everything" interface in future releases..

I keep getting a popup with this message: .\src\thread_t.cpp(106): thread_t::start(): Fatal error: Assertion failed This sounds like a bug that occurred in an older version of "Everything". There was a thread handle leak that would eventually use up all handle resources. What version is causing thi...

Just got around to testing the namepart function and found a problem.

Please try http://www.voidtools.com/Everything-1.2.1.415a.zip

There will be an official beta release soon.

Thanks for your support. One thing I might suggest is that there be an option for it to not necessarily create a new database quite so often. "Everything" should only do a full index once. Try increasing the size of the "USN Change Journal" for each volume. To increase the size of the "USN Change Jo...
