Some hard links are not shown

There is also
c:\Windows\System32\drivers\SamsungEventController.sys
, but Everything does not show it.
This confirms that there are two hard links to the same filesystem item:

Instead,
rtump64x64.sys
shows up with all its incarnations:

Everything 1.4 doesn't track changes to hard links.

Force a rebuild to pickup changes to hard links:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Indexes tab on the left.
  • Click Force Rebuild.
  • Click OK.


Everything 1.5 will detect changes to hardlinks.
