[SOLVED] Set from command line: Menu > Search > Everything

Post by Hoosh »

Sometimes I'll turn one of these on:
Menu > Search >
  • Everything
  • Audio
  • Compressed
  • Document
  • Executable
  • Folder
  • Picture
  • Video
Is there a way to set any of these settings from command line?
I know about the macros (like "doc:" and "exe:"), but I want a way to change the setting in the menu so when I run Everything from command line I don't have to open that menu and check it to make sure it is set to "Everything".

Please try the -filter command line option:

For example:

Everything.exe -filter "Audio"
Everything.exe -filter "Everything"

To set your default filter:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Home tab on the left.
  • Change Filter to: Everything
  • Click OK.
