Have excluded file type files still contribute to folder size in everything

[JTCGiants56]

In everything, I have *.jpg files excluded since they can quickly clog up a search. That's working fine.

My issue is that these excluded files do not contribute to the to the folder size they live in in everything.

So I could have a 50gb folder with all pictures, but it would still show as 0kb in everything.

I know this is likely how it's supposed to work, but is there anyway around this behavior without un-excluding *.jpgs?

Thank you

Include jpg files in your index and instead use omit results to hide jpgs from your results:

• In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Exclude tab on the left.
• Remove *.jpg from your exclude files filter.
• From the Index menu, check Enable result omissions.
• From the Index menu, check Add Omit Result Filter....
• Check Omit files.
• Set the filter to: *.jpg
• Click OK.

With Everything 1.4, Include jpg files in your index and instead use a filter to exclude jpgs from your results:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Exclude tab on the left.
• Remove *.jpg from your exclude files filter.
• From the Search menu, click Add to filters.....
• Change the Name to: No jpgs
• Change the Search to: !*.jpg
• Click OK.

Activate your No jpgs filter.
Filters can be activated from the Search menu, Filter bar (View -> Filters), right clicking the status bar, filter macro or filter keyboard shortcut.
