Hi!
I use 1.41 64bit.
In settings I have no DB path defined (so I use the standard settings)
But the DB is never saved.
Is there any setting I missed. (the service is also installed and running)
I can see the settings here.
C:\Users\Name\AppData\Roaming\Everything
The DB Settings is empty
db_location=
But no DB is created.
How does the service get the settings from the INI file.
Regards Martin
Everything DB is not stored
Re: Everything DB is not stored
Everything keeps it's database in RAM until you exit the program completely.
To exit Everything completely, right-click the Everything icon in the system tray and choose Exit.
The database - Everything.db - should now be written to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Everything (paste this in File Explorer's address bar)

You can force Everything to flush its database to disk with the -update command line option.
Please consider creating a scheduled to task to call Everything.exe -update to occasionally flush the database to disk.
The plan is to do this automatically in a future release.
The Everything Service is stateless. It has no configuration or state.
It simply allows the Everything client running as a standard user to access the Master File Table (MFT) and USN Change Journal on your NTFS volumes.
