How do I disable search_history/run_history.csv?

Post by ynut »

Hi

Everytime I invoke Everything I see run_history.csv and search_history.csv at the top of the list (I sort by the date) How can I disable them showing up at the top? Can I disable it so that Everything does not create those files?

thanks

To disable search history and run history:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the History tab on the left.
  • Uncheck Enable search history.
  • Uncheck Enable run history.
  • Click OK.
Consider excluding appdata from your index:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Exclude tab on the left.
  • Click Add Filter....
  • Change the filter to:
    c:\users\*\appdata
  • Click OK.
  • Click OK.
