Google Drive Scanning

Post by nesedenyana »

Hi,
This question is not about shared folders that are located under shortcuts. (The solution given here is not working: viewtopic.php?t=11499) This is about my files located under G:\My Drive.
When I add that folder to my Everything, it stucks on the Scanning.

Please check the Everything verbose debug output:
  • Copy and paste the following into your Everything search box:
    /debug
  • Press ENTER in your Everything search box.
    ---this will show a debug console---
  • Copy and paste the following into your Everything search box:
    /verbose
  • Press ENTER in your Everything search box.
  • The currently folder being rescanned is shown in Green text.
  • Is Everything just slow or getting stuck on a particular folder?


To close the debug console:
  • Copy and paste the following into your Everything search box:
    /debug
  • Press ENTER in your Everything search box.

Hi,
It is corrected after couple of tries, but the process is definitely different, because when you add a new physical Drive, Everything is very fast. But with Google Drive, it freezes. I have restarted my PC due to other reasons and forgot about Everything, when I opened today it was working.
Something ain't right, but can't put my finger on it.
