How to save filelist (.efu) with video/image thumbnail

Post by cndhng »

When I exported my search index results into an EFU file, I expected it to include the thumbnails. However, when I opened and checked the file list, it only contained the indexes without the pictures. I assumed it would fetch and update the thumbnails in real time.
Is there a way to do so? Thanks

Filelists can be used for offline files.
Trying to access these offline files may slow the system.
Everything will try to avoid "touching" files from filelists by default.

To show thumbnails for file lists:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    filelist
  • Select: filelist_thumbnails
  • Set the value to: true
    (Please also consider enabling: filelist_icons, filelist_preview and filelist_properties)
  • Click OK.
