Are you using the Everything service or are you running it As Administrator?

Microsoft office documents are not opening when I double click the file.

What does happen?

What version of Everything?
What OS?

Once a file is deleted, it is no longer known under its original name (to Everything). Instead, it is named with a GUID -like name. Windows itself keeps track of the GUID to original name data. If you took note of the file size, then deleted a file, then searched for that specific size, you will fin...

So is winmm=0 the defaulted setting?
And if so, how did it get enabled (in this case)?

Copy & Paste from Recycle Bin wow... did you know that if you COPY (& PASTE) a file from $recycle.bin the pasted file is pasted with its' original (real) filename (rather then the $recycle.bin's "guid") neat! (now a copy via [Salamander] does not do that, but a /Windows/ copy/paste [& by virtue of t...

(IMO, ADS will always be an albatross.)

What OS?
What is your "default" media player?

(Something I heard about some sort of "traditional" WMP available on Win11 or some such [as opposed to whatever the default crud might be there] so maybe that is playing [pun ?] into what is happening?)

Each time I hit the del key, the file is deleted (correctly) and the search field comes to focus. I don't see that behavior in 1.4. So thinking there is something else that you have set that is causing it to happen. (What I saw, was that on deletion, focus "went away", if you will, but did not jump...

Seems x64 support came starting with Version 14.0.
(Can't tell from there if the recycle bin utility is there or not.)

You're displaying Details. If you enable the Preview pane (View | Preview; Alt+P) do you then see the preview in Everything? Oh, you do have Preview enabled. Can't tell by your screenshot, but is the Preview pane itself actually visible? It is possible (I believe) in 1.4, for the pane to be dragged ...

Explain further?

You're doing, or wanting to do what?

You're taking the exported .csv (?) & manipulating or querying it further?
But for your purposes you're wanting the comma separator to be a ; ?

Frequently Everything will lock up for long periods of time saying "not responding".

Other then the large number of files (how large, though still shouldn't cause issues), doing anything particular prior to the issue, particular settings you have enabled, particular search that may be the cause ...?

(AFAIK, the Portable Apps version is exactly the same as FF itself - with exception of the PA loader & associated parts.)

Look at things, external.
Antivirus or similar?
Rogue program that may be injecting itself (hence barip15.com) into the FF process?

Multi-Rename - of directories, with locked file if file is open in 1 of the directories (& perhaps ? depending on order of directory names & from which directory particular file is open ?)

(I'd much rather have a FAYT, Find As You Type-like, feature in Everything.)

I'm was thinking more along the lines of, jump in the file list.
Or maybe, search for string in results list.

Care to run this by me... - Select files in a specific location One location? Multiple locations? One file? Multiple files? - Copy the filenames to the clipboard OK.

As a test, create a new, clean Profile & see if you still see the connection.

thus by using

Did you mean to say, "thus bypass using"?

I'll assume that if you were to use Edge, Chrome, or whatever, the same does not occur?

Disable all extensions (or run FF in Safe Mode for a while) & see if the hits continue?
(I.e., it might be a [malicious] extension trying to reach out & touch [someone

].)

Not that I knew about that feature, nor do I know what it is supposed to do... It seems that if you scroll through a document, using the "scrollbar" either by holding down the (left) mouse button or by clicking & holding within the scrollbar or by using the mousewheel the screen does not "draw" unti...

It should be returning everything.
So you should be seeing:

P:\Projects\500\587\587.000\file1.txt
P:\Projects\500\587\587.000\file2.txt ...

If you added the parent:, mentioned above, that would restrict your results.

Heh. FF's own (built-in) screenshot tool fails to work on "privileged" pages.

Perhaps, it would work via the FF "Console", don't know?

I can use a screen grab programmes, but a privileged page wont allow scrolling capture.

Explain?

If this was done in; Search | Filter, then the "macro" is simply a name that is used in place of typing out the search itself. So your "audio" performs a search on "c:\Users\myname\Documents\@ThisProject\|u:\Sounds\". (And does not look for audio:, as in the filter , files.) If you wanted to use a F...

Search History can be "awkward" if doing Deletes Search History - is awakward (with default action being, Open) if you want to Delete, you select what you want to delete & Delete - but, at that point the items are only "no longer shown" in the Search History list, but they do still exist - until you...

Should color highlighting also abide by "tolerance"?

(As it is, it does not, so 4:03.21 is colored differently from 4:03.18.)

(& i'll note that any "tolerance" setting number
may work out better or worse
then some other setting, number,
based upon your search & filtering you
might be using)

Horizontal layout is fine. Having the directory name (rather then "Parent Folder") is fine. The only benefit I see to having the initial "Parent Folder" (rather then the directory name) is with that, all actions related to a particular directory are displayed directly underneath said directory name ...

this holds the macro file open So is this different from "just" opening an Excel spreadsheet, as in you have to have an Excel spreadsheet that uses "macros" ? As in "just" opening an Excel spreadsheet, & Previewing it in Everything, did not stop me from opening the same file in Excel. (Didn't try c...

what *is* the practical usefulness of this feature? Typo'd file extension, perhaps? (Perhaps.) There have been times when I've mistyped a file extension. There are some that I have a habit of doing, fairly regularly. So I might search for said extension (ext:wrongo) so I can fix it. Other times, I'...

Not sure what caused that, particularly. But you could try the hammer approach... With Everything closed, make a backup of, then rename the existing Everything.ini file to Everything_old.ini. Restart Everything. Everything should load, with all default settings. You can then compare the file you bac...

What I was looking for, was "!ext:", literally. (And once I was about the type that out, it was like, try quotes, & I think that is what I needed ;-).)

With a few minutes under my belt, it looks like 1311's layout should be OK.

Am I missing something here, if you right click small, can't you click paste in the main context menu?

No, you're not missing anything.

LOL, captain obvious.
Yep, you said that & I started laughing.

This whole time, I'm fixated on 'Parent Folder' & forgot the obvious

.

The Copy, would be a right-click (context-menu or Ctrl+C, even from outside of Everything) 'Copy' function.
And the Paste, would be context-menu, through the (Everything) 'Parent Folder' path there.

Is it only these two particular files that are not turning up correct? What kind of time frame (difference) are we talking? Not sure if "millisecond" is taken into consideration here or not, but very well may be? (I know that on video length comparison, "ms" is taken into consideration, (or maybe th...

Why "regex:" ? regex: could be there, but in any case you would not want it as "part of the" date-taken: So you could have something like, regex: date-taken: , but then, why regex: ? I can do, date-taken:=dm: or date-taken:!=dm:, with both returning expected results. Or anything along these lines......

This should also fix the issue with some files reporting a file size of 0 under properties. Still seeing issues here - with some files. (Wonder if it's something else, permission or the like?) Oh. It's files in subdirectories to /$recycle.bin/, so non-$R files. Was that expected, that they'd report...

alt+enter(file property)
goto detail (maybe the third page)
and the file is 0 byte though it is not 0 byte
