Not updating share folders on startup ?

[merlinpimpim]

Hi,

Is there a way to prevent Everything indexes network drives at startup ?

Why this question ?
Because I have a lot of share folders with a lot of files/folders.
Index these files is very very very long (many hours) !

I want index NTFS/ReFS at startup (as at present), but indexing network shares just as planned (in Everything Folders tab) not at startup.

I would like to do exactly the same thing.
Is it possible now?

Perhaps a 1 hour delay before updating folders from Everything startup?

Update folders manually:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Folders tab.
• For each folder:
  • Check Never update.
• Click Update all now when you wish to update the folder indexes.

Clicking Update all now / Update now in the next beta update will update in the background.

Hi,

A delay of 1 hour is better than configuring "never update" for each folder.
I need planning for each folder.

Thanks

why not just reindex the shared folders according to the selected timeframe.

e.g. update everyday at 8pm -> only re-index at 8pm and not at startup.

Good idea.

Reindex the shared folders only according to the selected timeframe.
And not do this at startup.
Can we configure like this?

Currently, no.

I'll consider adding an option to skip an update if it was missed.
