Content indexing crashes

[hspindel]

Everything v1.4.1 works well for me.

If I install v1.5.0.1332a.x64 and enable content indexing, Everything crashes after running for quite a long time.

Any suggestions on what to do to track down the problem?

Thank you for your feedback hspindel,

I'm sorry to hear Everything 1.5 is crashing for you.



Crash dumps will help find the issue.
Could you please send a mini crash dump:

• Keep the crash dialog open.
• Download Process Explorer from Microsoft:
  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer
• In Process Explorer, select Everything.exe (If there is two, select the one using the most memory)
• Right click Everything64.exe and under Create Dump, select Create Mini Dump.
• Choose a filename and click Save.
• Please send this file to support@voidtools.com

There's a known issue with using Tools -> Options -> Excludes.



Everything uses the system iFilter to gather content.
There might be an issue with a third party iFilter.
Please try excluding file types like pdf, docx, html to see if you can locate the problem extension.

Thank you for the response.

I don't understand how to do your first step "Keep the crash dialog open." The rest of your steps are clear to me.

The crash dialog will look something like:

Oh, okay, thank you.

I have removed v1.4 and installed the latest v.1.5.0.1335a. That's a little newer than the last version I tried. I've started indexing again and enabled content indexing. It took many hours before it crashed last time, so we will see what happens.

After a couple days, Everything still has not crashed so I think some change in the very latest version fixed something.

Thank you for the support.
