Rebuilding everything database for v.1344a

Post by anmac1789 »

So, I just saw there is a new version for everything 1.5a version 1344a. I'm wondering when it says to rebuild the everything database, do I click "Force Rebuild" under Tools-->Options-->Indexes ?? or do I have to do something with the Everything-1.5a.db file in \AppData\Local\Everything ??

Is there some particular reason you're wanting to rebuild the index?
If not, you don't have to do anything.

(Can't hurt to backup things, first.)

You don't have to do anything. The database structure has changed to accommodate new features (likely the property sorting).
Everything will autoimatically change its current database to the new structure.

That just takes a little more time than a regular update.

Because on the 1344a page, it says to rebuild the index

It says:
this version will require a database rebuild.
Everything will do the rebuild.
