Descriptions:
"Everything" is a desktop search engine for Windows that instantly locates files and folders by name.
Contrary to Windows search, "Everything" initially displays every folder and file on your computer (hence the name "Everything" "Everything").
You can also choose a search filter to limit which files and folders are displayed.
Characteristics:
How long will it take to index my files?
"Everything" only indexes file and folder names and generally takes only a few seconds to create your database.
Indexing a clean installation of Windows 10 (almost 120,000 files) will take about 1 second.
1,000,000 files will take about 1 minute.
Looking for Everything in the content of the files?
Yes, “Everything” can search files for content if you use the content: search function.
File content is not indexed, content search is slow.
Does “Everything” consume the resources of my system?
No, "Everything" uses very few system resources.
A clean installation of Windows 10 (about 120,000 files) will use about 14 MB of ram and less than 9 MB of disk space.
1,000,000 files will use about 75 MB of ram and 45 MB of disk space.
Does “Everything” monitor file system changes?
Yes, "Everything" monitors changes to the file system.
Your search window will reflect the changes made to the file system.
Is "Everything" free?
Yes, "Everything" is Free Software.

Does ”Everything” contain any type of malware, spyware or adware?
No, "Everything" does not contain any type of malware, spyware or adware.
Does “Everything” lose any changes made to the file system if it is not running?
No, "Everything" can be closed and restarted without losing any changes made to the file system (including system restarts).
"Everything" updates the database when it is started.
What are the system requirements for "Everything"?
"Everything" will run on Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10.
NTFS indexing will require activating the Everything Service or running “Everything” as administrator.
How do I convert a volume to NTFS?
Please make a backup copy of your important data before converting a volume to NTFS.
Once the volume is converted to NTFS you will not be able to revert it to FAT or FAT32.
Please note that some devices may not be able to read USB drives / disks like NTFS volumes.
To convert a volume to NTFS:
From the Start menu, click Run.
Type the following and press ENTER:
cmd
At the Command Prompt, type the following and press ENTER:
convert D: / fs: ntfs
where D: is the unit to convert.
Can "Everything" index a networked drive?
Yes, please see Folder Indexing for more information.
How do I install Everything?
Please see a Basic Guide to install “Everything”.
How do I use Everything?
Please see a Basic Guide on how to use “Everything”.
Why does “Everything” 1.4 use more memory than 1.3?
"Everything" 1.4 indexes file sizes and dates and also saves extra information by default for faster ordering.
Please see Optimize for less memory impact to disable these changes.
How do I avoid the User Account Control (UAC) consent message when executing "Everything"?
"Everything" requires administrative privileges to access low-level read on NTFS volumes to perform indexing.
The UAC consent message can be avoided by running "Everything" as a standard user and installing the "Everything" service, or by not using NTFS indexing.
To run "Everything" as a standard user and install the "Everything" service:
In "Everything", from the Tools menu, click Options.
Click on the General tab.
Check Everything Service.
Uncheck Run as administrator.
Click OK.
Exit "Everything" (right-click the Everything icon in the system tray and click Exit)
Restart everything.
