Hello. When exporting a file list that includes 'Size on Disk' to an *.efu via 'FILE | EXPORT...', the 'Size on Disk' column is only populated to record 50 and goes no further even though I can see that there are 'Size on Disk' values in an entire file list containing 23,843 files. This happens whether the option to 'Export selection only' is checked or not.
I believe that I am completing the process correctly and that there might be a bug that is limiting the results for 'Size on Disk' to 50.
Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Re: Incomplete File List Export
Everything will only export 'gathered' properties by default.
Please gather properties before exporting:
To automatically gather properties when exporting:
Please gather properties before exporting:
- In Everything, Select all your files (Ctrl + A)
- From the File menu, click Read Extended Information. (Ctrl + Shift + E)
- From the File menu, click Export. (Ctrl + S)

- In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.

Re: Incomplete File List Export
Outstanding! That did the trick; thank you! Now I am noticing a different issue. In the Everything window (file list), I can see the following file properties:
- Name
- Path
- Size
- Size on Disk
- Extension
- Type
- Date Accessed
- Date Created
- Date Modified
- Attributes
- Run Count
- Filename
- Size
- Date Modified
- Date Created
- Attributes
- Size on Disk
- Path
- Extension
- Type
- Date Accessed
- Run Count
Re: Incomplete File List Export
Everything exports "filename" instead of Name and Path.So, why are these file properties not included in the export?
- Path
- Extension
- Type
- Date Accessed
- Run Count
The filename field contains the full path and name.
Extension is not exported because that is calculated from name.
Type is not exported as this is always gathered from the system.
Date accessed is not exported for privacy reasons.
Run Count is not exported for privacy reasons.
Exporting as CSV will save these properties.

Perfect! I used the tab-delimited text export, and it worked great. Thank you.
