Microsoft OneDrive files not showing up

Post by KenM »

I have just realized that files that I have in OneDrive are not showing up in an Everything search. These are files for which there are local copies; e.g. the files exist in C:\users\ken\OneDrive\...

OneDrive files have shown up in searches before; has something changed? Is there something I can do?

Thanks,
Ken

Please try forcing a rebuild:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Indexes tab on the left.
  • Click Force Rebuild.
  • Click OK.
Please make sure you have no search options checked under the Search menu:
  • In Everything, From the Search menu:
    • Uncheck Match Case.
    • Uncheck Match Whole Words.
    • Uncheck Match Path.
    • Uncheck Match Diacritics.
    • Uncheck Enable Regex.

Thanks ... that (forcing a rebuild) solved the problem (although it would be nice to be able to understand what happened).

Do you have any exclude options set under Tools -> Options -> Exclude?

The checkbox 'Enable exclude list' is checked (although I assume that's the default; I'm pretty sure I've never changed any settings here).

Thanks for the info.

Please make sure you are using "Everything 1.4.1.895" earlier version could miss changes.
