How to change column layout permanently

Post by mczerski »

I have searched the forum to find a satisfactory answer to my question, but to no avail. Sorry, if I have overlooked an answer on the forum. I wish my custom column layout to be used in all searches and with all filters. Your reply will be – as alyway – welcome. Best redards

What version of Everything are you using?



Everything 1.4 should always keep your current column layout.

Please make sure Everything is installed correctly:
  • 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 setting your default column layout in Everything 1.5:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Home tab on the left.
  • Set Columns to your desired properties.
  • Click OK.
Use Alt + Home to restore your default columns.
You can set the column layout with bookmarks in Everything 1.5.
You can temporarily add to your current columns with filters in Everything 1.5.
