duplicate entries listed

Post by Ryma »

Hi

Is this an error in Everything or a settings issue? I always get duplicate entries listed. See screenshot. Thanks in advance for your help.

Could be a corrupt index.
Duplicated entries are shown when your database is filled with zeroes on disk.

Please try forcing a rebuild:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Indexes tab on the left.
  • Click Force Rebuild.
  • Click OK.


If files are appearing twice, please remove any duplicated folder indexes:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Folders tab on the left.
  • Select your duplicated drive.
  • Click Remove.
  • Click OK.
NTFS volumes are automatically included under Tools -> Options -> NTFS.
