I run everything with admin priviliges in windows 7, but i get the annoying uac dialog prompt, is there anyway to disable uac just for this program? i don't want to create a security hole just for 1 application.
Thank you those methods work, only problem is cannot pass arguments to everything.
In xp i had a shortcut with the option -search and using launchy i just typed the search i wanted and it would pass that argument and everything would start inmediatly searching.
But since it's a task i cannot pass arguments each time, only when creating the task

Hi. I am using a Win 7 machine, and have found Everything immensely helpful on my previous Win 7 machine. On my newer machine, however, Everything will give me results for files and folders in my libraries, but not in folders on my desktop -- although if I open a folder on my desktop and then use Everything to search inside it, it works. How can I get the software to search file-names in all my folders, both on the desktop and in my libraries? Please explain any steps I need to take with a simple, non-tech-savvy user in mind, & thanks for the help (and fine software).
