Thanks a lot for your assistance!!! I have followed your advice and ET works perfect, as it always does!!!

mczerski

Thanks. Updated version works fine. What variables should I enter into statusbar_selected_item_format or elsewhere in order to see the dimensions of a selected intem in the status bar if the item is an image or a movie?

mczerski

Thank you for your reply and clarification. But, in future, please be more precise. I will update my ET ASAP!!! :D For instance, you wrote, "In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options...", which gave rise to my question and – generally – may cause an unnecessary burden to you with ...

mczerski

I am using ET ver. 1.5.0.1275a (x64), but in the Tools > Options drop-down menu there is no option "Advanced"! Why? This shortage makes your advice useless. What should I do?

mczerski

Thank you for your reply. I’ll look forward to advice (if any) from other forum members. Anyway, if no solution if found, I’ll live with that "curosity" of ET, as I still consider your ET absolutely marvellous in many, much more essential ascpecs. ET is unbeatable by any other software of similar ...

As this thread is more than 2 years old, let me add my "3 cents" to it
I am a happy user of ET 1.5.0.1275a (x64) on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. However, I have set media handler to Potplayer because it has options that Windows Media Player does not. That’s why I would not like to change this setting.
As ...

I have searched the forum to find a satisfactory answer to my question, but to no avail. Sorry, if I have overlooked an answer on the forum. I wish my custom column layout to be used in all searches and with all filters. Your reply will be – as alyway – welcome. Best redards

mczerski

Thanks a lot for your answer. I look forward to seeing your TODO task developed and implemented. I hope, you’ll advice the users about the new feature on this forum.
Best regards

It is really great that VoidImaveViewer (VIV) can perform slideshow(s). My question is: how to load a list of images to be played by VIV using a txt/efu file containing the file list through a command line option. I work with such file lists on a daily basis and would be happy to load one at a time ...

mczerski

Thanks a lot for your advice. Now I know how to hendle my problem. Best regards, Marek

I need to check quite often if a package of several dozen files are on any of my disks. Do I have to search each of them separately, or is there an other way to search for all of them at a time? I could think of making a list of these files in a text file in which each file full path would be in a ...

mczerski

Thank you for your reply and advise – a little bit tedious, but works anyway.

mczerski

Everything will not detect date accessed changes.

The USN Journal does not receive a notification about date accessed changes.

Everything updates the file times when it receives a BASIC_INFO_CHANGE notification in the USN Journal.

Also, ReadDirectoryChanges (for folder indexes) does not receive ...

And more: for your information I stopped MS Defender and restricted Cortana "interventionism", as they intefered and caused problems with very specific tools I need to use as a professional translator and editor. These are the only modifications I made to the Windows 10 Pro default settings

mczerski

Yes, I am absolutely sure that the [Administrator] text is gone.

I am rally sory as I was sure (but I seem to be mistaken) that I reported my System characteristics when I raised the problem. My system is Windows 10 64-bit Professional, with standard Polish localisation settings . I am not a ...

mczerski

Thanks for your advice and effort. I did as instructed, but it did not help to solve the problem at all. The preview panel still displays a yellow rectangle with "PDF" in it. When I click on the rectangle area ET properly displays the file content in the associated programme.
There is one thing I ...

mczerski

Yes, it does show [Administrator]

mczerski

Thank you! A followed your advice and installed the lates alpha version. Although this version does not display pdf files in the preview panel either, I am about to give up the issue to save my time. TC search with Everything support will do for me. Thanks again for your help. Best regards.

mczerski

Thanks for your reply. But, where from I could download the updated version you recommend? Voidtools on is download website (https://www.voidtools.com/downloads/) displays: "Download Everything 1.4.1.1022" as apparently the latest version, which is not true. No newer versions are offered there! And ...

mczerski

Thank you for your advice. However, my question whether and, eventually, when Voidtools will have its own in–built previewer to handle pdf files remains valid. I am a little reluctant to install software that may affect my PC settings of other programmes, that handle pdf files. I know, that I always ...

mczerski

As great as Everything is, I cannot understand one thing: when I use Windows Explorer or total commander all standard (incl. pdf) files may be previewed without hassle, while the same functionality on Everything (portable 1.5.0.1275a (x64) on Win 10) either does not work (this is my case except ...

mczerski

Thank you for your advice. In fact, I see I have overlooked the option you indicated in your message.
But how about my "key" question related to updates of former ET 1.5 Alpha portable versions?

mczerski

I am using portable 1.5.0.1275a (x64) and would like to update it to a newer version of 1.5 Alpha. Is it possible to download the latest Alpha 64-bit portable version and unpack it into my 1.5.0.1275a (x64) folder hoping that the software will be updated while my original settings will be preserved ...

Hi, I would use your advice:
Convert FILETIME To Unix time:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6161776/convert-windows-filetime-to-second-in-unix-linux
if only it would be useful for me. But it is not. I am not skilful in C+ (referred to on the site advised by you), and – first of all – I need to ...

mczerski

Thanks for your reply, still more that you are busy with a commercial project. I keep my fingers crossed for the successful development of your project.
My problem has been saved as in the meantime I found an advice in the net: I ticked-off "Start ET with the system", reset the PC, then ticked-in ...

mczerski

Warmest thanks to all who helped me in this thread. Now, my TC and Everything are fully integrated and work like a charm. I followed the advice posted by Tuska along with instructions referred to in his/her post.
I am sorry I reply only now. I was on long, long holidays away from my PC.
Best regards

mczerski

I have the same problem, i.e. Everything stopped updating search results in real time. As to indexing in real time, one more remark: when I attach an external USB disc, whether previously indexed by Everything, or not, Everything starts indexing the disc just attached to my PC, and I consider it OK ...

mczerski

Good luck! May the new project appears really profitable for you.

Hi,
Is it possible to mark selected files on the result list for further processing? In other words, how could I select files as I do in Total Commander?

Froggie and Notnull, thank you for your advice. What helped to solve the problem was the Froggie’s advice: "General>UI>Run Everything in Background". I simply thought that when the ET service is started by Windows anyway at the system start regardless of ET application running or not, this option ...

mczerski

My question relates to a situation somewhat different form that raised on the start of this topic.
My Everything service is running in the background from the start of the computer. However, no EV icon is not displayed in the tray, until I open the application ready for search from its folder or ...

The latest portable version of Everything 1.5 Alpha is Everything-1.5.0. 1315 a.x64.zip (voidtools.com/forum/) as of 26 June 2022.

The latest portable version of Everything 1.4 is Everything-1.4.1. 1017 .x64.zip (voidtools.com/downloads/) as of 26 June 2022.

To get to the most recent Alpha ...

Sorry, but I am getting lost with all that download and version system of ET.
I wanted to reinstall my former 1.5.0.1275a (x64) Portalbe, but I was afraid that the original zip file I have in my computer may have been infected. So I looked for a fresh file on your download page. And what I see there ...

Thanks a lot for your reply, and I do applogize with such delay. I had "a storm" of unexpected duties to perform.
I have followed your reply and it works perfect. And again. your advice occurred really helpful. Thanks!!!

mczerski

Thanks for your reply!
I would like to make sure I do understand your question properly. You wrote that I should remove offline discs (which I interpret as "all offline discs") should be removed from the index db. And that’s what I would like to make clear.
1.
In my Index > NTFS I have several ...

mczerski

I have been using Everything on Windows 10 for some years and it is a grrrrrrrrrrrreat software, but I found recently that it displays some disks and files twice or even three times on the result list. I have also found that in the Index > NTFS section there are also doubled or even tripled discs ...

mczerski

This means that any list of files produced by Windows applications such as MS Access, Excel, Word etc. will have to be re-encoded into an UFT version before their being usable for ET. I hardly understand why such application as Total Comander is capable to processing files in UTF encoding as well as ...

I have just sought advice as to reindexing a single drive and your advice has occurred excellent and working as it always has. Thanks a lot.

I assume that you mean "translation" in terms of localizing your softaware (rather than translating the IT code into an executable format), and if it occurs to you that you need an additionaol translator’s assistance/service, then I could be at your disposal. Of course, I am sure you have an English ...

mczerski

I like the idea! Keep doing your great job!!!
If I could be of any assistance, for instance, in sharing a user’s perspective, just do not hesitate to let me know and I will be just happy to help – gratuitously, of course. My background is that of a linguist and of natural science researcher with a ...

I'll look into using shorter names for a few columns.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Personally I think that – as long as a user knows how to achieve a desired effect – it is likely not necessary because:
1) everybody can localize the titles suitably to his/her requiremets, if only he/she knew how ...

It sounds like you have already carefully set a sequence of columns under Tools -> Options -> General -> Home -> Columns: . Here you can set the columns you wish new Everything windows to open with. The default is "(Use last value)" aka no change.
