v1.4.1.1030 (x64) displays all files twice

Post by jlgarnier »

Hi Community,

Just discovered and installed this great tool! It took a while to index my 1TB half-full hard-disk but it finally help me finding forgotten files! However, whatever the search string, all files found by the tool is displayed twice (same name, same path): any clue to fix this issue?

Thanks in advance for any help!

NTFS volumes are automatically indexed by "Everything".

Adding a NTFS volume as a folder index will show duplicated results.

Please remove any NTFS volumes from your folder indexes:
  • In "Everything", from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Folders tab.
  • Select any NTFS volumes and click Remove.
  • Click OK.
To check which NTFS volumes are automatically included:
  • In "Everything", from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the NTFS tab.
  • NTFS volumes that have Include in database checked are already included as a NTFS index.
