Double click results: behaviour

Post by kazzybash »

hi, on my pc I got two instances of Everything 1.5 Alpha: one fixed (set to be like the 'normal' instance of Everything (not being 1.5 Alpha I mean) and one portable. I do not run them simultaneously. If one instance runs the other is not running and vice versa.

The behaviour of double click in the list of results seems to be different:

1) in my fixed installation it generates the possibility of renaming a file/folder
2) in my portable this does nothing

What I want is effect number '1'.

Question: how is it possible that the behaviour is different? Or better even: how can I set my portable to behave like my fixed.

Kind regards, Kazzy

What is reported under Tools -> Troubleshooting information?



Have you changed your selected_text_click_action setting?
  • -this settings controls what Everything does on the second click.
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    click
  • Select selected_text_click_action.
  • Set the value to: Rename.
  • Click OK.
