Thanks for the feedback aviasd, ( %PATH% $exec does not, but the workaround is acceptable, maybe even preferred ) I'll make some more changes here so commands in %PATH% will work. I've actually encountered the issue again on 1.5.0.1255a, but it was only once in about 20-30 attempts (my test file run...

Only the main window supports the dark theme for Everything 1.5.

'Remove' in Everything implies remove from a list.

What I meant was as a preemptive measure: As you said, it's tricky know the size for pdf/docs without reading the content.

Sorry, I misread content indexing as content searching.. Showing the total indexed size in the Content options page would be useful. I'll put this on my TODO list.

It's tricky to determine as Everything is multi-threaded. Each thread could potentially allocate gigabytes of memory for content searching.

Thanks for the suggestion therube,

The "fixed an issue with opening virtual files." change has broken relative paths when executing files.

Everything needs to be able to execute files like:
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Mouse

I'm working on a fix.
I will make $exec expect file system files only.

Thank you for your feedback aviasd,

Everything is treating the file as a virtual file.

Please make sure you specify the full path and filename in $exec().

For example:
$exec("C:\Everything\tot.bat" "%1")

I'll look into improving 'virtual file' detection.

I have added #height: and #width: for testing in Everything 1.5.0.1254a.

(#height: and #width: are currently undocumented in the UI)

Everything 1.5.0.1254a fixes an issue with getting stuck indexing when you have an exclude filter.

Please let me know if the issue persists.

You might be excluding folders only?

To exclude lnk files from your index:

In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
Click the Exclude tab on the left.
Select your *.lnk filter and click Remove.
Change Exclude files to: *.lnk
Click OK.
