duplicate driver problem

Post by Laura »

Hi :)

I don't understand what the problem is, I also deleted the database files and the backup but then the result is always the same as the photo

Thanks

What is listed under Tools -> Options -> FAT and Tools -> Options -> NTFS ?

Please try enabling automatically remove offline volumes:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the NTFS tab on the left.
  • Check automatically remove offline volumes
  • Click OK.
Prova ad abilitare la rimozione automatica dei volumi offline:
  • In Tutto, dal menu Strumenti, fai clic su Opzioni.
  • Fai clic sulla scheda NTFS a sinistra.
  • Seleziona Dimentica automaticamente volumi non in linea.
  • Fai clic su OK.

Thanks, but I know that if I uncheck that box I wouldn't have any more problems, except that I wouldn't have the contents of my external HDs stored in memory, am I wrong?

Correct.

The alternative is: leave "automatically remove offline volumes" unchecked and manually remove any offline volumes under Tools -> Options -> NTFS.

:( It would be nice if you could pin hard drives so that the script never forgets the hard drives you've told it to remember. So I tell Everything "pin this hard drive," and it asks me for the name. Then, if I search for a file and I don't remember exactly which external hard drive it's on, the script (in offline searches) shows me the name I gave it and the path, so I know exactly which hard drive to connect to find my file.

I hope this is an interesting idea and that others will appreciate it too. Thanks as always for your kindness. :)
