How to refresh/reload “Bookmarks-1.5a.csv” after manual edit

[SuperDude]

When I manually edit my Bookmarks-1.5a.csv in Notepad++, is there a command to make Everything reload the Bookmarks-1.5a.csv file so the manual changes I made are updated?

I manually edit my Bookmarks file in Notepad++ to add icons to context menu entries. These are the steps I take to edit and reload my Bookmarks-1.5a.csv file:

1. Open the Bookmarks-1.5a.csv in Notepad++, then make edits to it, save changes, then exit Notepad++

2. I exit out of Everything, then restart it so the Bookmarks changes I made are reloaded.

Is there another way to reload my Bookmarks without having to exit and restart Everything? Thank you!

I recommend exiting Everything before modifying your Bookmarks.csv

Everything may overwrite your Bookmarks.csv when you make a change to your bookmarks within Everything.



One way to reload your bookmarks without exiting Everything (not recommended):

• In Everything, from the Bookmarks menu, click Show all Bookmarks....
• Delete all bookmarks.
• Click Import....
• Select your bookmarks file and click Open.
• Click OK.

What information are you changing externally?

Please consider the following:

• In Everything, from the Bookmarks menu, click Organize Bookmarks.
• Select the bookmark you wish to edit externally.
• Press Ctrl + X
  (this cuts your bookmark to the clipboard as TAB delimited text)
• In Notepad, or Excel, or other text editor, press Ctrl + V
• Make your change (including customizing the icon)
• Copy all the text back to the clipboard (Ctrl + C)
• Paste the changed bookmark back into the Organize Bookmarks window.

Note: there's no TAB delimited header when cutting/copying
The current TAB delimited header is:
Name,Type,Folder,Case,Whole Word,Path,Diacritic,Prefix,Suffix,Ignore Punctuation,Ignore Whitespace,Regex,Search,Filter,Columns,Sort,Descending,View,Index,File List,Host,Link Type,Macro,Key,Icon
