Everything keeps losing all memory and archives

Post by joevoidtools »

For the first year I used "Everything", it was amazingly great. Hell, it still is. But it has been losing all its archives with greater and greater frequency.
The program launches successfully and works successfully. Then, at some later point in the day, I return to its still-opened window, and I find that all the previous entries are gone and it cannot find anything in a search.
If I close it out and relaunch, there is no improvement. It's now lost all its archives.
In each instance, I have to repopulate the entire "Everything" database from scratch.
I had no luck at all net-searching this topic with a variety of search keywords on several search engines.
I run Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I have absolutely no malware or fragmentation issues, I guarantee it. I have no issues making any other program work whatsoever.
There is no association whatsoever with the appearance of this problem, which has now happened about 5 times, and the running of my defrag or malware scans and repairs. In fact, this problem has never appeared after I did either one of those things.
I do not make a practice of turning different firewalls or security programs and features on and off, so that's not it, wither.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?

What version of Everything?
Are you using the Everything Service or do you Run As Admin?
Where is the database being stored, %APPDATA% or elsewhere?


(I don't know about this site, but I've seen some where the captcha's baffle me.)
