I really like SE and use it everyday, but this problem has been bugging me from the start.
I always get 2 copies of files in my results. Both of the files seem to have the same location. Is this caused by there being a windows cache somewhere?
BTW my folders are set up as:
c:\
d:\downloads
d:\pictures
So there shouldn't be any overlap.
UPDATED
It seems to work better without adding any folders for some reason so maybe that's the answer.
Always get duplicates in results
Re: Always get duplicates in results
From the Everything FAQ:
Duplicated results
NTFS volumes are automatically indexed by "Everything".
Adding a NTFS volume as a folder index will show duplicated results.
Please remove any NTFS volumes from your folder indexes:
