Bumping this, some 3 yrs later.
Anything, maybe?

Thanks for fast reply!

I can confirm I've got none of those settings, and have force rebuilt db.

EDIT: Annnd . . . brain fart . . .was wrong directory, and brain was saying it was right

So I have a bookmark setup to search my portable apps dir when I shift+alt+a: *.exe|*.lnk "C:\Users\m\MyApps" Works fine, been using for ages. I just added Image Glass app in MyApps dir and now it wont find that app when searching that dir https://i.imgur.com/o6fVpYq.png Thought it DOES in normal se...

Should have added prior, this is why I thought a good use-case, or possibly used in parralel with Everything: The most valuable data - everything you add, like ratings, tags, text metadata (title, description, scene, shot etc.), markers, subclips - is stored in XML files in hidden directories locate...

I've just started playing with Kyno https://lesspain.software/kyno , it looks like it could be the solution I've been waiting for (organising a large video production content library), it produces metadata as you add it, to the folder containing the video files. Thought I'd just enquire if: - There'...

Just jumping in to say:

ME TOO!

I think you misread the post above, it worked for me by simply adding the drive (G) to everything.exe.

Hi, awesome to hear.

Wait: I could add 'G:\My Drive' as a folder! It then scanned G, and now it seems to work!

Excellent, thanks a heap for this excellent instruction, will dive in and see what's what!

Also interested, yet OP seems to be missing that GFS is an online/network/thingy, it's a network drive, but not a Windows network drive (what's the word i'm looking for!?) and not a desktop synced solution. I.e. your files are all on GCloud and NOT your PC (as opposed to the synced older version). F...

Ok, all well and good, also FYI - I just discovered with Teracopy installed you can tick the "only when scroll lock is off" option, so if scroll lock is on Windows uses default copy/move. Yet, I'm still looking for an answer as to how to use "advanced copy to" and regex options. I.e. Can I use this ...

Fair enough, thanks for your efforts

Thanks for your efforts! Any tips to get advanced Copy/Move sending via TeraCopy?

Thanks, and the regex could specify to use TC?

Any tips? (no idea myself!)

Could you pls ELI5 in practical use (i.e. searching for tags on files) ?
Also, how are the tags managed on files?

Hi, thanks for reply, yes I'm totally aware TC/etc can replace copy/move. The point is I don't always want to use TC, and having the option to control from Everything would be very helpful (large files, several hundred or thousand). There's no way possible to choose a DIR copy/move destination from ...

Wondering if progress was made on the metadata stuff?

:?: There are many situations where it would be VERY useful to send files direct to Teracopy or otherwise from Everything. I've seen options to send files from Directory Opus to TC: copy or move from current place. https://resource.dopus.com/t/copy-move-with-teracopy/5024 Is this possible with Every...

I admit I could have read more, but all the info was making my head spin! Was wondering if you could give some quick suggestions/links re: my use case: I want to quickly search a large collection (>5tb) of personal footage videos that I want to tag and categorise. I'd ideally like this data to be se...

The hotkey_explorer_path_search search command is available in Everything 1.4.1.877. When enabled and Windows Explorer currently has focus, pressing an Everything hotkey will bring Everything into focus with the search fill out with the current path from Windows Explorer. To enable the hotkey_explo...

Anywhere near the top?

Could you suggest any kind of workaround to search for files, see thumbnails and show some file details available?

I've searched but haven't found anything on this - is there any way, or planned functionality, to view thumbnails in detail view? I've tried zooming-in hoping the thumbnail would show, but to no avail. OR is there a way to view Thumbnails (alt-1, alt-2) with additional details about each file visibl...

Barring (insert appropro word) the drives I DONT want to be searched seems to work, in order to find duplicates on specific drives:
I.e.
!C:\ !D:\ !E:\ !I:\ dupe:

Yeah what he said

Heya, a video producer here that feels the same!

Hey, long time lurker, first time poster - just wondering if progress was made on this?

Thanks for such an INDISPENSABLE tool!

I can't actually find anywhere that shows exactly what should be written after : date_format in everything.ini https://www.voidtools.com/support/everything/customizing/#date_format doesn't have any working examples. date_format=dd.mm.yy doesn't work nor does ddMMyy what am I missing? Thanks, :ugeek:...

I just noticed I am getting numerous messages in verbose

Hi, thanks for quick reply, Check if the folder is indexed, but there's a search issue: Does the [R.G. Mechanics] Tomb Raider folder show up if you search for: L:\__Games\ Yes, when I pasted L:\__Games\, it does NOT show Tomb Raider folder. Make sure Regex, match case, match diacritics, match whole ...

First up - it's evidence of how dependent, and useful, Everything has become that I post here. So - THANK YOU! So, i've got some issues. It seems to only have these issues with recent versions - I was on latest 1.2, and just installed beta 1.3, but was getting the same missing file issues. This issu...
