After upgrading from Windows version 1903 to version 2004 today, Everything no longer searches anything in my “Documents” folder on the “C” drive (full path is “C:\Users\Barry\Documents”). It does search and find everything else on the “C” outside of that folder and it searches all my other drive letters.
What do I need to do to get Everything to search that folder again?
Thanks to anybody who can help me out.
