List unindexed files properties only

[sk2107]

Hello,
is there a way to filter only the files which their properties are not indexed yet while property indexing is in processing stage.


Thank you.

Moved to the Everything 1.5 forum.


Untested..
!indexed:<property>

Example: !indexed:title:


EDIT: that was a bad idea ... don't use this.

Actually, I am using !md5: directly but what I want is a filter that lists only the files which were not touched yet by property indexing.

Thank you.

Oh, if you already indexed (most of) the files for md5 prperty, you *can* use my suggestion (I think):

!indexed:md5:

( I thought this was about running property indexing for the very first time and wanting to see the progress ).

[sk2107]

Yes, your suggestion gave the same result.

The reason of my question is I have the md5: filter to have an indicator for how long the property index will take, I have a remaining around 200 items out of millions and the progress bar shows 24%, this means the remaining files are related to other properties (I am using md5,length,height,width,volume label) .

I hope my case is clear.

with lots of thanks

Does the following search help:

file: !md5:

[sk2107]

Yes, surely it does, and it is what I am using currently, but partially as I mentioned before, because property indexing includes other properties. I can set a search that includes all my defined properties with their includes and excludes to get the correct list of remaining files for each property, but I feel it is not the best way to do it and I think there could be an easier and comprehensive way to do this.

In simple words, I need a filter that can list the files which are represented by the progress bar percentage (completed or remaining).

Thank for your replies.

This request list is not exposed to the Everything search engine.
The best option at the moment is to search for: file: !md5:

[sk2107]

I believe it does as it is the most important property for me (md5) which is doing a great job by the way, because I have so many old files which could have changes in name or dates through the time.

Thanks a lot as usual and best regards.

I have a request for the future (or may it is there somewhere); when I move the mouse over the progress bar, it gives the file name which is being indexed; can it be the full path displayed anywhere?

Thank you.

[sk2107]

I found it. It is mouse over in the options screen. this is my question; cannot these files be listed because surely it queued somewhere.

Best Regards

I will trial showing the full path and name in the tooltip for the next alpha update.

Thank you for the suggestion.



For now, the full path and name is listed under Tools -> Options -> Properties -> Hover over the current name shown at the top right.
