How do I read mounted drive from new cloud service

Post by allenrubinstein »

Hi, folks. Newbie here, so if you could use layman's terms, I'd appreciate it.

I've just started using a new cloud service called Icedrive, which allows me to use the stored data "like a personal hard drive", so I'll be searching for files there regularly. The app on my desktop allows me to "mount" the drive to my File Explorer, which it does as Drive I (eye). None of the files show up on Everything though. Can anyone tell me how to make Everything search through that drive as if it were on my hard drive?

Thanks.

To add your I: to your Everything index:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Folders tab.
  • Click Add....
  • Select your I: and click OK.
  • Click OK.
The I: drive might be unselectable if Everything is running as an administrator.

If you are unable to select your I: drive, please make sure Everything is installed correctly and running as a standard user:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the General tab on the left.
  • Check Store settings and data in %APPDATA%\Everything.
  • Uncheck Run as administrator.
  • Check Everything Service. (Please make sure this is tick-checked and not square-checked)
  • Click OK.
  • Exit Everything (right click the Everything tray icon and click Exit).
  • Restart Everything.
Please let me know if you are unable to select or add your I: drive.
