[NO BUG] Offline files when moving to another drive

Post by enduser »

Version 1.5.0.1399a (x64)

I tried rescanning the drive and rebuilding the index.

Please check for offline drives under Tools -> Options -> FAT/NTFS.
Select the (Offline) drive and click Remove.

The drive is online and I can move files to it but it creates the gray file as well.

I found the issue, E: was originally mapped as a setup partition for setting up the SSD.
After setting the drive up Everything tracked the setup partition as offline.
So when moving the files to E: it was also showing up in the offline partition.

Removing that partition fixes the problem.

This is a bug with Everything 1397a..1399a

1397a added new folder monitoring methods.
Unfortunately, these detection methods are incorrectly updating offline drives.
It will be fixed in the next alpha update.

Everything 1.5.0.1400a fixes an issue incorrectly updating offline FAT-volumes/network-drives when there is an online volume with the same drive letter.
