Everything v1.4.1.1030 (x64) locking up

Post by VernG »

Hey folks! I was hoping someone could give me some help in diagnosing an issue I've been dealing with for a number of months now. About every 24/48 hours or so, I can count on everything locking up and no longer maximizing and showing its screen. When I hover its icon on the taskbar, I see a notice that the program has stopped responding.

I can close it and reopen it and its comes back up, but since it is indexing my unRAID server that has about 200 TB of storage, it can take a while to become ready to search again.

I am running everything on:
  • Windows 11 25H2 x64
    Ryzen 7 7700x
    64g DDR4
    2TB nVME drive
    NVidia GeForce RTX 3060 w/12g RAM
The machine is rarely overloaded in my day to day use so I'm not sure what might be causing this other than having everything index a large amount of files and/or that the files are indexed over a 1gb network connection.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this are welcome! 👍🙂

Please send a mini crash dump when Everything is not responding:

The lockup is most likely caused by processing a rescan.

Are a lot of changes being made to your server?
Perhaps Everything is struggling with the scheduled rescan.

Please try disabling the daily rescan under Tools -> Option -> Folders -> (for each unRAID server share) -> Change to Never rescan.
See if the lockup persists, if it doesn't it's likely related to this rescan.



Everything will process ALL changes from a rescan in one go, it may take several minutes to do this and Everything will appear frozen.
Everything 1.5 will process changes in the background.

Thanks for getting back with me 👍🙂

I made the changes to the rescan and I'll keep an eye on it to see if it crashes after the changes.
