Everything no longer works

Post by Hykoz »

Hello, I love using Everything every day but since a few weeks Everything no longer works, the application opens perfectly but shows me a message: "Loading
ment of the database in a loop".
I tried to solve the problem by myself but nothing worked. Could you help me ?

Below is a screen (in French)

Thank you for the issue report Hykoz,

I'm sorry to hear Everything is stuck loading your database.

Could you please try the following:
  • Open the Task Manager with Ctrl + Shift + ESC
  • Click the Details tab.
  • Select Everything.exe (if there is two, select the one using the most memory)
  • Click End Task.
  • Click End Process.
  • In Windows Explorer, type in the following address and press ENTER:
    %LOCALAPPDATA%\Everything
  • How large is your Everything.db in this folder?
  • Delete your Everything.db
  • Restart Everything.
Please let me know if the issue persists.
