Problem with search in newer Win10 builds

[Spookyy]

For some reason Total Commander stopped searching for files in the Onedrive folder in c:\users\myname\OneDrive

Any reason why it would do that?

I have tested some other commander type programs and they can search for files inside the onedrive folder.

Not confirmed
No such problem here.
I can search files in the OneDrive folders with TC.

Hi and welcome!

You may want to search the forum for post with 'Onedrive' by user 'ghisler(Author)'.

And it could help if you provide a few details about your system and used TC (both version and bit-ness) and also about the kind of the 'Onedrive' you use.

No such problem here either. Windows 10 Home 1803 build 17134.407

Tested with both 'Everything' enabled and disabled.

TC 9.21a x64.

Don't know about onedrive, programs install there settings via that folder link in windows.

That may be your problem - Microsoft seem to experiment with OneDrive all the time on Windows 10. For example, in the October 2018 release, they broke the method I use to detect files which are available online only. The files may have special attributes which makes TC miss them. For example, the "Everything" tool doesn't see files in folder links (junctions, reparase points).

Okay, thanks for the info!
