local ntfs volumes have same label

[simlateverything]

I indexed my external volumes (see attached). But how I distinguish them? Everything shows: your file is on drive D: Which D:? Please

Hi,
give the drive a name...

Thank you. That is exactly what I did and rebuild the index. But it still shows just the drive letter F: (without the new name) in the search results. How to make the new name of the drive show in the search window?

Try the Everything 1.5 Alpha version.
The latest version is currently Everything 1.5.0.1391a.

Please see: Switching from Everything 1.4 to 1.5

Thank you. Same thing. No name of drive in the path.

The name of the path is correct(!) -> F:

It is about the name (label) of the drive F:
What is the name in Everything Options - 1.5.0.1391a (x64) > Indexes > NTFS ?

Please see also:
Menu "Tools" > Debug > Statistics >

Code: Select all

NTFS Index
Volume name:	\\?\Volume{...}
Path:		G:	      )
Label:		NTFS-60 GB    ) my example above

The drive must be connected first (status: Online and NOT Offline!)
and only then can you change the name (label) of the drive - as shown in my picture above.
I think you have already done this anyway...
