about external drive...

Post by Laura »

Hi :)

I connected some external Hard Disks that have been correctly stored. The problem is that my files are organized in thematic folders but I would also need to see the title of the files contained in the folders without having to connect the hard disk.
So I would like that, when I double click on a folder, unlike when it happens with connected hard disks that Everything opens it for me, in case that folder is on an external Hard Disk disconnected, the double click explodes in Everything the contents of the folder showing me the names of the files inside it.

So, to summarize.

Double click on a folder called "Travel" on a connected Hard Disk, Everything opens it for me

Double click on a folder called "Travel" on a disconnected Hard Disk, Everything explodes the contents of the folder and shows me which files it contains without having to connect the Hard Disk.

Sorry if I was not clear :)

The next alpha update will have an option to open folders in Everything.

Thank you for the suggestion.



For now, please consider file lists.

To open file list folders in Everything:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    filelist
  • Select: filelist_explore_folder_in_everything
  • Set the value to: true
  • Click OK.
