Searching for tags is not indexed by default.
Searching for tags will be very slow.

For the best performance, combine the tag: search with other search filters.

For example:

C:\Downloads\ *.png tag:map

\\server\share\ *.png tag:map

J:\ *.png tag:map

(where J: is your mapped network drive)



To index tag information:

• In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Properties tab on the left.
• Click Add....
• Search for:
  tags
  , select Tags and click OK.
• Change Include only files to include png files and other file types where you are setting tags.
• For example:
  
  *.mp3;*.jpg;*.png
• Click OK.

Everything will perform a once-off tag index in the background.
Progress is shown in the status bar.
Once complete, your tag: searches will be instant.

Thank you. It works.

Now how to update tag index? Because I can't search with new tags, and can't find button to update index (without reindexing from the start).

Everything should automatically reindex tag information when the file is modified.

To manually reindex tag information, select the file and press Ctrl + F5.
