The properties of the same file are inconsistent as seen by Everything and File Explorer

Post by arthurtu »

在搜索dbghelp.dll发现的问题,在C:\Windows\System32下搜索到dbghelp.dll文件,用资源管理器查看文件的详细信息属性,和在Everything中查看详细信息属性,“文件版本”属性是不一样的。
When searching for the issue with dbghelp.dll, the dbghelp.dll file was found in C:\Windows\System32. When checking the detailed information properties of the file using File Explorer and comparing it with the detailed information properties in Everything, the "File Version" attribute was found to be different.

It's caused by Everything 1.4 not having Windows 10/11 support in the program's manifest.
Windows loads a different, older dll.

It will be fixed in Everything 1.5

Thanks very much, but does not work... :(
I moved manifest file, then restarted Everything, and I even restarted Everything service.
The dbghelp.dll file, or other dll/exe in C:\Windows\SysWOW64, the "File Version" attribute was found to be different too.

Sorry, an external manifest doesn't work because one is already embedded.

I don't have a good solution for Everything 1.4.

No need to wait.
It's already there and running better than 1.4
