Possible bug in ReFS and "Add a folder"

Post by VarunAgw »

My D: drive is ReFS.

Since changes in ReFS are not visible to everything immediately, I have added it through "Add a Folder" feature - viewtopic.php?p=78795#p78795

Now when I delete a large folder from D: drive, Everything UI hangs for minutes. If it's node_modules with 100K files, it hangs for 10 minutes+

I ran "/DEBUG" -> Enter in search bar

While it's frozen, there are lot of "RESCAN DELETE" entries going on. Once those "RESCAN DELETE" finishes, UI become responsive again.

I guess UI shouldn't hang while wait for "RESCAN DELETE" to finish. Or maybe a clean rescan instead.

What version of Everything are you using?

Everything 1.4 will block while there's changes to process and deleting folders from the index is pretty inefficient.
Everything 1.5 will update in the background and deleting large folders from the index is instant.

I tried v1.5 today. Looks pretty smooth :)

I got rid of ReFS partition two days ago and switched to NTFS. So can't retest it anymore
