Re-indexing at each startup

Post by yoyomaah »

For some reason the latest version of Everything is starting to re-index all drives almost on every system startup.

Using 8.1 x64. I have 9 HDDs and 3 external HDDs. USN journal and monitoring is disabled on 2 HDDs and 1 external HDD.

Tried exiting and running Everything manually without reboot - no problem. Tried exiting manually before reboot/shutdown - doesn't seem to help. Tried delaying the launching of Everything on startup - does not help.

How can I troubleshoot this? Or at least how can I debug it to see what exactly is causing this?

Running Everything in debug mode will report why the rebuild is necessary.

Please try running Everything in debug mode

Please enable the debug mode via the Everything.ini:
  • Exit Everything completely.
  • Edit your Everything.ini in %APPDATA%\Everything
  • Change the following line:

    Code: Select all

    debug=0
    to:

    Code: Select all

    debug=1
  • Restart Everything.
What is display in the debug console after a restart and a rebuild occurs?

Thanks.

It went fine during the previous reboot - no rebuild. Today it got rebuilt again. Debug says:
(couldn't find where it writes the log and couldn't copy the text so typed manually)

Code: Select all

...

_db_filesystem_add 0: ...
...
_db_filesystem_add 8: ...

open volume \\...

At this point I see in the main windows how it rebuilds all the volumes.

C: is my primary single-volume drive, it's Samsung 840 Pro SSD 128 GB. Never had issues with it, and SMART looks fine. What could be the problem?

Also, is it possible to only rebuild a "failed" drive? Rebuilding my C: takes only a few seconds I think, while rebuilding all 9 drives takes around a minute.
