Can't output column "type" using ES.EXE

Post by jmurphy »

In the Everything interface (1.4.1.1015), there is a column called "Type" that displays a short description of the file.
I can't seem to find the equivalent column in the list of columns supported by ES.EXE (1.0.1.21)

Am I missing something?

Type information is not available in ES. (It's a limitation with the current IPC implementation)

Hopefully Type support will be added for the next major Everything update.


For now, please try using the extension column:

es.exe -extension

Thanks, I'm already using -ext. but was hoping for "type", as well.
I'll keep my eyes open for the next version.

Thanks for the quick reply.
