If possible, you should always use the latest x64 version, e.g. Everything-1.4.1.1016.x64 - Jan 07, 2022.

Everything must be started so that a query in TC is possible with the integration of Everything.
Is [x]'Everything' ticked in "Find Files"-window?

I recommend this entry in the wincmd.ini file in the [Configuration] section, e.g. (adjust path!):

Code: Select all

Everything=C:\Tools\Everything_1.4\Everything.exe -startup

because it starts Everything in the background if Everything has not been started yet and
if a search in TC is done using Everything.

Check whether you have these recommended settings:
[✓] Start Everything on system startup
[  ] Run as administrator
[✓] Everything Service

Tested with TC_clean_x86.ini.

hi Tuska
my tc v10 portable include 64bit and 32bit , i have copied the Everything 32bit , now i have downloaded the last 64bit but i guess it'll not work under winpe 32bit

Is [x]'Everything' ticked in "Find Files"-window?

no , i haven't ticked on , i have tried to enable in configuration ->operation ->everything

because it starts Everything in the background if Everything has not been started yet and
if a search in TC is done using Everything.

do you mean have I to keep always everything running in the background or only start it before using total commander?

I did not know about a command like C:\Tools\ in the tc ini file , i haven't found information in help guide

thanks Tuska ,appreicate it

In Everything 1.4 do the following: Menu "Tools" - "Options..." - "General":

1. Tick "Start Everything on system startup" => recommended, but ...
   Everything can also be started later (when searching in Total Commander), if you make this setting as indicated above in:
   wincmd.ini - [Configuration] section ... now you have to specify where your Everything.exe is located ...

   Code: Select all

   Everything=Path\To\Your\Everything.exe -startup       <- Adjust the path! - E.g. C:\Everything\... C:\Tools\Everything\...

   IMPORTANT: When using a portable version, it is absolutely necessary that the "installation" is located on the system drive, e.g. C: !!!
   -startup ... Starts Everything in the background.
   Detailed explanation of parameter: Everything= in Total Commander
2. Untick(!) "Run as administrator"
3. Tick "Everything Service"
4. See this Picture as example ... (click on the image on the far left...)
5. Set your desired options...

If you do everything as indicated here, then a search in TC with Everything should be possible.

PS: In my signature above there are many important links, e.g. this one: Search queries: TC <=> 'Everything'...

Hi Tuska
sorry for my poor english , i wanted to say i did not know that wincmd.ini can accept a line like [url]C:\Tools\Everything_1.4\Everything.exe -startup[/url]
seeing i have copied in the same tc folder i will try %COMMANDER_PATH%\Everything.exe -startup , maybe i will work
really great screenshot !
thanks , really appreciate your help ,take care

[tuska]

Try this: (I'm sorry, I made a mistake above -> it must start with: Everything=).

Code: Select all

Everything=%COMMANDER_PATH%\Everything.exe -startup

Good luck!

One more addition:
This entry is NOT required in wincmd.ini in the [Configuration] section as your Everything.exe is in the %COMMANDER_PATH% path.
The parameter: Everything= is only to be considered as an OPTION anyway.

Everything=

Everything=Everything.exe -startup
Set location of Everything.exe to run when user checks "Everything" checkbox while Everything isn't running yet.
Without this option, Everything.exe will be searched in the Total Commander folder. ...

Thus, it is only necessary to apply points 1., 2. and 3. above in order to be able to carry out a search in TC with Everything 1.4!

Tested with TC_clean_x86.ini.

I assume that you have managed to set it up by now.
Here is a summary.

Code: Select all

Everything-1.4.1.1016.x64 --> Everything.exe in %COMMANDER_PATH%

1. Double click on Everything.exe in %COMMANDER_PATH%   (portable installation: System drive, e.g. C: required!)
2. ◉ Install the "Everything" service, then press button "OK"
3. Confirm User Account Control (UAC) query with "Yes"
4. Tools -> "Options..." -> General: [✓] Everything Service ... is tick-checked now automatically
   (See: Task Manager <press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC>), then click on Services tab, type ev ...
   slightly below the 'Everything Service' is displayed - name: 'Everything'. The status must be "Running".)
5. [  ] Store settings and data in %APPDATA%\Everything <- DO NOT check this option for a portable version!
6. Proceed with the setup - choose your options -> see PICTURE
7. In the course of time, %COMMANDER_PATH% may contain, for example, the following files relating to "Everything":
   Bookmarks.csv
   Everything.db
   Everything.exe
   Everything.ini
   Everything.lng
   Filters.csv
   Run History.csv
   Search History.csv
8. Done!

I personally do not consider Everything as portable in any case as the best use is to start a service on target machine and get database populated in background for this machine only....

Anyway, what i did for some user is to add everything folder on the path and make a hard link from Everything64.exe to Everything.exe for 1.5 version.

With this, no need to modify portable TC even on usb thumb. You just launch Everything yourself using command "everything -startup" externally or from a hotkey, command or even using autorun plugin ... .

I do keep old instance with newest alpha (1.5a...) in ini. I use now 1.5 on most of the computers as it starts faster than previous 1.4 version and the gui is nicer and more flexible.

I try to summarize the processing steps on this basis again:

...
i have copied everything portable files like Everything.exe and Everything.lng
(inside Everything-1.4.1.1015.x86.zip) in the same tc 10 portable folder
...

...
my tc v10 portable include 64bit and 32bit , i have copied the Everything 32bit ,
now i have downloaded the last 64bit but i guess it'll not work under winpe 32bit
...

Switching from Everything-1.4.1.1015.x86 to Everything-1.4.1.1016.x64

• Completely exit Everything (right click the Everything system tray icon and click Exit).
• Start Everything-1.4.1.1015.x86 in %COMMANDER_PATH% -> double-click on Everything.exe
• Menu "Tools" - "Options..." - "General": [✓] Everything Service => UNTICK(!) Everything Service,
  then click on "Apply", confirm UAC query, click on "OK".
  The Everything Service has been removed.
• File - Exit (Ctrl+Q) ... (1.4.1.1015.x86)
• Overwrite your existing Everything.exe (1.4.1.1015.x86) with Everything.exe => 1.4.1.1016.x64 in %COMMANDER_PATH%
• Continue here... (2 posts above)

In this case, no further settings are necessary, neither in Total Commander nor in 'Everything'!

• If you want to switch to a newer 1.4 version in the future, you can also use these instructions.
• If you decide to go with Everything 1.5 Alpha at some point, you can find information here under point
  "13. SETTINGS: For 'Everything' in Total Commander & 'Everything' -> from 'Everything' Version 1.5"
