I've been using Everything Search for 2+ years. Love it. Donated! Recently, when I go to use it, there's nothing in the search window. I select "Everything" as my file type, but nothing is there. I just updated to 1.4.1, but no change. Blank window. What am I missing? (probably something dumb).
Here's something else. When I select "New Search Window" I do see one repeated file (same file over and over) but the scroll function / side cursor scroll bar gets wonky and stuck. I've attached a screen shot of the repeated file on the New Search Window, stuck scroll bar. Can't pull the scroll bar up or down.
Win 11 Pro.
