"@" (at symbol) on folder name seams brake search when manually indexing a symbolic linked folder
did not thoroughly tested the exact circumstances but I managed to index the linked folder only when not nested in a path containing an "@" folder.

Re: "@" (at symbol) on folder name seams brake search when manually indexing a symbolic linked folder
What version of Everything?
A Folder index?
From what I can see, with a Folder index, a symbolic link "rolls over" to, is "assigned" its' Target's name.
As in a symbolic link, LINK of C:\out\alcohol\LINK@ATSIGN
with a TARGET of C:\out\alcohol\Langs
when you add C:\out\alcohol\LINK@ATSIGN as a Folder index, it shows in the Folder Index list as: C:\out\alcohol\Langs
(Same results if you add a Folder Index to C:\out\.
And a search for 'AX_Ch .dll' turns up C:\out\alcohol\Langs\AX_Chs.dll & C:\out\alcohol\LINK@ATSIGN\AX_Chs.dll.)
(I'm on 1.5 alpha.)
So I must be missing something on the "manual index" part?
(Per my example, I only looked at this from a local disk end.)

I haven't had any luck producing the issue.
Could you please provide a sample path for testing my end.
is the folder on a network share?
