Ignore broken files

Post by kurtmeln »

I have to break some application dll files(of 360safe which was installed by administrator) to avoid censorship.
However, Everything complains on every start.
"Exclude files/folders" does not solve this problem.
Please fix this.
Thanks.

When is the dialog shown?
eg: on startup without doing anything?
when you open the search window
when you open a folder or file?


I wonder if this is caused by a icon shell extension..

Please try disabling icon shell extensions:
  • Copy as paste the following into the Everything search box:
    /icon_shell_extensions=0
  • Press ENTER in the Everything search box.
  • If successful, icon_shell_extensions=0 is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.

Are you using the Everything service or are you running it As Administrator?

Please make sure Everything is installed correctly and running as a standard user:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the General tab on the left.
  • Check Store settings and data in %APPDATA%\Everything.
  • Uncheck Run as administrator.
  • Check Everything Service. (Please make sure this is tick-checked and not square-checked)
  • Click OK.
  • Exit Everything (right click the Everything tray icon and click Exit).
  • Restart Everything.

Sorry for the late reply.
Startup of Everything without doing anything shows this error.
Re-installation of Everything in standard user mode seems help. But I cannot test this issue further, because I found a way to uninstall the 360safe.
Thank you all!
