Network indexes question

Post by sk2107 »

Hello,

As the files in server are displaying the path of the server's local path , so how can I know if the file is on the server or in my local machine.

Another question is that Everything is storing the network indexes data in the local database or it only reads the data from the server?


Thank you

Regards

Add a remapping on either the server side or client side.

Server side:
Server -> Everything -> Tools -> Options -> Everything Server -> Include only -> Add...
For example:
Set the path to: D:\media
Set the remap to: \\server\media
or, set the remap to: J:
(where J: is a mapped network drive.)

Client side:
Client -> Everything -> Tools -> Options -> Network Indexes -> Include only -> Add...
For example:
Set the path to: D:\media
Set the remap to: \\server\media
or, set the remap to: J:
(where J: is a mapped network drive.)

The client has a local copy of the whole index.
