Everything 1.5 Alpha • Re: Within Everything find dupe of selected file (size-ext)

But for others it opens a new tab with just this: "size:"

Please make sure Everything has access to the file.
-If Everything is running as administrator, Everything will not have access to mapped network drives.
-Is Everything showing [administrator] in the window caption?

Please check the command line sent to Everything:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, click console.
• Perform your context menu -> Find dupes in Everything
• Check your debug console for:
  
  cl: "C:\Program Files\Everything 1.5a\Everything64.exe" -new-tab -s size:[getsize:"c:\path\to\file.txt"]" "extension:[extension:"c:\path\to\file.txt"]

Please make sure the path looks correct, for example:

c:\path\to\file.txt

-Please try the path in Windows Explorer to ensure it's valid.

To close the debug console:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, under the Debug submenu, uncheck console.

Please make sure size indexing is enabled under Tools -> Options -> Indexes.
Please make sure Everything is reporting the correct file size for the file.

[getsize:] will pull the size from your index if available.
If the size information is not available from your index, the size is gathered from disk.

I'd also like to ask for the command to replace the "getsize" command for one to get "length" if that's possible.

Please try the following command:

"C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe" -new-tab -s length:[getproperty:"%1","length"]

(where C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe is your Everything.exe location)



[getsize:]
[getproperty:]
