Help with linked partition

Post by sk2107 »

Hello,

I have a partition which linked to a folder name (not a drive letter), accidently I deleted that folder, but this list remained showing all the files and folders in that partition and all properties that were already calculated (specially MD5 which is very important to me).

The problem is that when I linked the partition again, all properties start again which is taking a long time (the partition has big files and a big number of them).

Now it is running and almost done, but what shall I do if it happens again in order not to lose these information.

Thank you

Everything is seeing the deleted path-mounted-drive as "moved".

Please try disabling auto_move_ntfs_volumes:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    move
  • Select: auto_move_ntfs_volumes
  • Set the value to: false
  • Click OK.
I will look into improving the "moved" detection for path-mounted-drives.
