Doesn't appear to index NAS

[brandonx76]

Hi -

Trying to run an index on my NAS. I added the path per the instructions here: https://www.voidtools.com/support/every ... _indexing/

It's been running for about 20 minutes and nothing is coming up, although I believe it's trying to run something

Compared to the initial startup where it searched my local hard drives very quickly, its taking much longer.

Am I missing something?

Any information appreciated.

Thank you

Are you running Everything as administrator?
Drive-mappings are per-user so your administrator account might be unable to access your NAS share(s).


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.

As mentioned in the link you added, Folder indexing might take a while:

Why is indexing so slow?

Folder indexing uses the same approach as the Windows search.

This can be a lot slower than NTFS indexing.

Everything can take a couple minutes to scan a folder and all its subfolders and files.
