I currently have Everything in my programmes folder and the settings inn my appdata roaming folder.
I would like all the settings to be in my programmes folder...I tried unchecking the "store settings and data" box in options but I get an error message telling me that the data can't be saved and would I like to save setting in %appdata%
How do I get the settings to save in the same folder as Everything.exe?
Thanks.

Re: save settings to everything folder
Store your Everything.exe in a folder that has write permissions for a standard user.
Writing to C:\Program Files\Everything will require administrative privileges.
Please try storing your Everything.exe in the following folder:
C:\Everything
-or-
C:\Programs\Everything

You have to use the portable version and copy this into a dir where you have write access.
Then all files and setting will be in this tree.
