How to load files from multiple paths?
Re: How to load files from multiple paths?
Use the OR operator (|) to search multiple paths.
For example:
For example:
C:\Users:\1.txt | C:\Users:\2.txt | C:\Users:\3.txtRe: How to load files from multiple paths?
If you're getting said list of files from elsewhere, you can simply copy them to (Windows) <clipboard> & paste same into the (Everything) searchbar, & it will automatically add the |'s.

There are characters on the line, maybe 255? This results in me only being able to pass in about 7 paths each time.void wrote: Tue Jul 08, 2025 7:51 am Use the OR operator (|) to search multiple paths.

Please try changing the paste_new_line_op mode:The version I'm using is V1.4.1.1026, and it doesn't automatically populate
Copy and paste the following into your Everything search box:
/paste_new_line_op=1Press ENTER in your Everything search box.
If successful, paste_new_line_op=1 is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.
Paste your multi-line list of files into the Everything search box.
Everything will replace the new lines with |
(Everything 1.5 will do this automatically)
Alternatively, please try searching for a list of filenames in a file:
Create a UTF-8 txt file of all your filenames (one filename on each line)
In Everything, from the Search menu, click Advanced search....
Scroll down to the bottom.
To the right of search for a list of file names, click Browse....
Select your list of filenames file and click Open.
Click OK.
