startup with bookmarks file

Post by jcmn »

Hi

I would like to startup Everything loading a bookmarks file previously saved.

I tried the following command but it doesn't load the file:

C:\program files\everything\everything.exe -startup -bookmark "C:\users\<user>\documents\bookmarks.csv"

Anything wrong here?

Please use the name of the bookmark for name:

Code: Select all

-bookmark <name>
To check the name of the bookmark:
  • In Everything, from the Bookmark menu, click Organize Bookmarks.
  • A list of all the bookmark names are shown. Use one of these names in the -bookmark command line option.
The bookmark filename can not be changed.

The bookmark.csv used by Everything is located in:
%APPDATA%\Everything

If "Store settings and data in %APPDATA%\Everything" is disabled the bookmark.csv is stored in the same location as your Everything.exe.

Named instances can use a different variation of the Bookmark.csv filename.
