How could I without plugging in drive A: or the real drive E: find out which E: drive (now A:) in the NTFS tab can be deleted? And when I remove the E: drive (formerly A:) in the tab will the index of the original, existing drive E: be kept?
2 drives with letter E: - remove one of them?
2 drives with letter E: - remove one of them?
I plugged in a drive with the letter E:, Everything scanned it, I changed the letter to A: and Everythings scanned A:. I plugged off the drive. Now Everything shows 2 E: drives:

Re: 2 drives with letter E: - remove one of them?
Thank you very much!
The last time I tried it this way anything went wrong. All of the indexes of all the E: drives were gone.
So, fsi:3 (the fourth index) does not show anything, this must be the drive not being existing anymore with the letter E: which now is A:. If I remove this index the other E: index (another drive) should be kept, shouldn't it?
fsi:0 shows A:.
Why is the none existing E: (which has chaned to A:) kept although it is not available anymore? Could one avoid it?

Yes, if you remove the 4th index the other indexes will be kept, even if they are offline.If I remove this index the other E: index (another drive) should be kept, shouldn't it?
It is possible the volume GUID changed with the drive letter change.Why is the non existing E: (which has chaned to A:) kept although it is not available anymore? Could one avoid it?
Not much can be done about that as Windows sees the volume as a completely new volume.
The auto_remove_moved_ntfs_volumes ini setting should be set to 1 to automatically remove moved NTFS volumes. It should be 1 by default, so unless you've changed this to 0 Everything should automatically remove the offline volume, even when automatically remove offline volumes is disabled.

Many thanks!
Alright, I just removed the second E: (now A:) index on a second Everythings, it appears all went well
many thanks again
Yes, it is set like that, I haven't changed anything:The auto_remove_moved_ntfs_volumes ini setting should be set to 1 to automatically remove moved NTFS volumes
