need to click "Force Rebuild" to get the removable volumes when each reboot

Post by void_hero »

Hi Team,

version:
1.5.0.1391a.x64

scenario:
as the subject, recently after each reboot, i need to click the "Force Rebuild" to get the the NTFS removable volumes contents.
as the screenshot showed, i checked the "Automatically include new fixed volumes" & "Automatically include new removable volumes" BEFORE this scenario(previously there was NO this scenario).

question:
why it not working as the option checked as previously?

expectation:
working as the checked option expected as previously.

Is Monitor enabled for said volumes?

Are D: & E: the removable drives?

Do you alternate physical removable drives that are using (borrowing) the same drive letter?
As in, is one time your Samsung E:, & the next time your Kingston is E:?

Not sure how to check/enable Monitor for said volumes;

both of them are Western Digital DISK device, so, yes, they're removable drives;

NO, no change for the drive letter;

all in all, as mentioned in the original post, previously it's working as expected(without concerning the mentioned 3 questions), but not now, so not sure what's wrong here to fix it.

In the screenshot you've posted, only down lower is 'Monitor' & we can't see that part ;-).

The contents of D: E do not show at all, or the contents is there, only not for new changes?

FYI:
The list of Local NTFS volumes in the screenshot shows drives C:, D: and E:
Drive C is currently selected and below the list are the settings for that drive C:
Select another drive to show the settings for that specific drive.

But checking is not really needed as these settings are correct. Otherwise a Force Rebuild would not include the files and folders of these drives.



Are these drives encrypted? If Everything starts scanning before the drives are decrypted, Everything can't read them.



I assume the D: and E: drive are connected when Everything starts?
If not, there could be an issue with writing the database to disk when Everything exits.
To test:
- Search for
about:db

- Make a note of the location of the database
- do a force rebuild
- check if files from C: D: and E: are included in the results
- Menu => File => Exit
- In Explorer, go to the location of the database
- Check date/time. Should match the time you exited Everything.
- Temporary disconnect drive D: and E:
- Start Everything
Are results shown from D: and E:?

- Connect drive D: and E:
Are results shown from D: and E:?



Do you have a cleaner/optimizing program running in the background or at startup that could mess with your Everything? (CCCleaner and the like)
