Toggling windows loses the search tab

Post by sibojang9 »

Toggling the everything window causes the all the search tabs lost. It acts like completely restarting the program, and the program does not remember any tab opened.

Please provide an option to remember the tabs.

To restore your previous window:
  • From the History menu, under the Recently Closed Windows, click your last closed window.


Alternatively, please the advanced hide on close setting:
  • 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:
    close
  • Select: hide_on_close
  • Set the value to: true
  • Click OK.
Now when you toggle Everything, the window is instead hidden and then restored, preserving your tabs.
