Everything does not disable Windows Indexing.

Even more: Everything 1.5 can make use of the Windows Indexing results (if asked to).

Hi,

Maybe these pictures can help you with the topic.
Please see "Indexing Options" in Windows.

You can make a search query in Everything using Windows Search, for example, as follows:

Code: Select all

si:searchword
(Since 'Everything' version 1.5.0.1258a from 7.5.2021, the Windows Search can also be used for search queries in 'Everything).

Then you miss a lot of functions, better performance, content indexing and access to Windows indexing.
And this is only a short list.
