Locking files from being deleted in index

[anmac1789]

Lock a file inside everything search so as to delete all duplicates except the chosen locked file. This would be useful for a large number of files if we could automate a list of a files to be locked somehow.

[void]

I will consider a way to mark or lock files.

Thank you for the suggestion.



For now, please consider temporary omit:

• In Everything, from the Indexs menu, click Enable Result Omissions.
• Right click a file to "mark" and click Temporarily Omit.
• The selected file(s) are temporarily excluded from the results until you close your search window.

For now, please consider file lists / file list slots:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click File List Editor.
• This will show the file list editor.
• Back in the main Everything search window, drag-drop your files to the file list editor to "mark" the file.
• Once all your files are "marked", copy all the files from the file list editor (Ctrl + C)
• Add the following to your search: !filelist1:
• Hold down Ctrl and click the filelist1: text in the search box.
• Paste your files (Ctrl + V)
• Click OK.
• Everything will now exclude the "marked" files.
