Win directories v Synology directories

[jhibbard]

1.4.1.10.17
Synology DSM
Windows

If a search shows I have two directories:
1 NTFS
2 Synology

and I hover over each, I get
1 shows "Size xxx MB"
2 shows "Size 0 bytes"

The Windows directory is resident
The Synology directory is Windows mapped to a Win Drive D:

If I then double click on either of the above, I get the correct listing of the subdirectories' contents.

I am unable to screen cap -and- hover at the same time.

Any help?

and I hover over each

Clues as to how to get that to happen?

[jhibbard]

Sorry, I'm not following you.

On my end, when I hover a file name, I don't get anything.
So there must be something I turned off (on my end).
Hoping (others) could clue me in as to what to switch so that I can see information when hovering.

That's interesting. I don't think that I have ever heard of this. My only _guess_ is to index your files. You can do this by choosing a drive, then click 'Properties' Then check 'Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties'

I assume you have already enabled folder sizes.
For others, to enable folder sizes:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Indexes tab on the left.
• Check Index folder size.
• Click OK.

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.

Please try rescanning your Synology folder:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Folder tab on the left.
• Select your Synology folder and click Rescan Now.
• Everything will show [rescanning] after the Synology folder name.
• --wait until this [rescanning] text is no longer shown--
• Click OK.

Does the issue persist?

[jhibbard]

Good now. The only change was to tick 'Run as administrator'. Rescan was not needed. Thank you.
