"Still doesn't work"?
You mean since b-versions?

Latest version I have is 1411b and it works fine there. Also works fine in 1386a.

Also the tooltip should say that it's tied to full row select. Doesn't mention that in the UI, but the ini says it. Was trying to figure out what the setting does as I've always been able to open to path without full row select.

With these default settings in Everything.ini - Everything 1.5.0.1415b (x64),
clicking anywhere in the “Path” column works for me:

path_hit_text_only=0

full_row_select_double_click_path=1


path_hit_text_only
full_row_select_double_click_path

In Everything.ini, I also have this parameter:
full_row_select=1

It's the path_hit_text_only setting. (Open With is highlighted in the menu)

Please try disabling path_hit_text_only:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    path
  • Select: path_hit_text_only
  • Set the value to: false
  • Click OK.
path_hit_text_only was enabled by default in earlier alpha builds.
When enabled, opening the path only works when double clicking on the path text.
When disabled, opening the path works when double clicking anywhere in the path column.
Does the issue persist?

It works with most of the file types but not all the file types for some reason. It has been an issue since the v1.5a. The regular version doesn't have that issue.

Please confirm your Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> path_hit_text_only setting.
