Pause update the database

Post by w64bit »

If I copy large files on a disk (File Explorer) and after that I open Everything, the update of the database is starting and both, Everything and the copying are freezing.
One solution to fix this is to pause copying until Everything is finalizing database update.

Is there any command ID to use to pause updating the database and to have the copying working?
Or a setting to use that Everything to check if it has enough bandwidth to perform the update?

UI_ID_INDEX_MONITOR_CHANGES41803
UI_ID_INDEX_PAUSE_MONITORS41804
UI_ID_INDEX_STOP_MONITORS41805

Command IDs

There's no such setting.
Everything assumes the OS will share bandwidth. (which usually doesn't happen with USB devices)
