Is it possible to launch Everything app to search a specific folder?

Help & Support
1

I once used FAYT - Everything (Local) on DOpus, but I felt it was slower and had some limitations compared to the actual Everything app.

So, I am using the 'Search Everything' function in the context menu that launches the Everything app, already prepared to search the specific folder's contents.

Can I make a button or set a shortcut key to do the same thing?

This should do the same thing:

ContextMenu VERB="Search Everything..." LOOKUP

You can find commands to run context menu items by selecting something and running:

ContextMenu SHOWCMDS

You can also call Everything directly. This lets you pass additional parameters.

@nodeselect
@nofilenamequoting
@async:"/programfiles\Everything\Everything.exe" -search """"{sourcepath}""" "
