[PicNicNic]

Hallo,

is it possible to create a Link that start a search with a specific string (which must to be searched) in Everything?

Thank You

Please try -search command line option:

Everything.exe -search "abc 123"
The Everything search is set to: abc 123

Use triple double quotes (""") to escape a literal double quote:

Everything.exe -search """"abc 123""""
The Everything search is set to: "abc 123"



-search



The shortcut target should look something like:
"C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe" -search "abc 123"

Enable the ES URL Protocol and use an es://search URL to open Everything and set the search:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the General tab on the left.
• Check URL Protocol.
• Click OK.

Use an es: URL to open Everything and set the search.
For example:
abc 123

es: URL Protocol

Hi. Thank You!

With such a link the search will be opened again and again in a new Everything window. Is it possible to set the search to start in an active window?

Everything will use the Tools -> Options -> UI -> "Create a new window when running Everything" option to specify if a new window is created or an existing window is shown.

If you don't want to change this setting, you can customize the ES: call by editing your registry:

• From the Start menu, search for: regedit
• Right click the Registry Editor and click Run as administrator.
• Navigate to:
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ES\shell\open\command
• On the right, change the (Default) value data to include -new-window or -no-new-window
• For example:
  "C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe" -url "%1" -no-new-window
