Everything 1.5.0.1394a will no longer allow untrusted connections to the Everything Service.

Only executables signed by voidtools can connect to the Everything Service.
Upgrade/Update Everything 1.5a (portable) - Duration: <1 minute - ENGLISH - only example!
  1. Settings
    1. Settings in Everything
      • Option and example path only(!): C:\Everything\NO_ALPHA_INSTANCE
        File “NO_ALPHA_INSTANCE” without file extension and file contents in the Everything program directory.
        This removes the suffix -1.5a from the file names and the Everything Service!
      • Everything Options - 1.5.0.1393a (x64) > Keyboard > Toggle window Hotkey: Pause ("Pause"-Taste) - pls see Tooltip...
      • Everything Options - 1.5.0.1393a (x64) > General > ✅ Start Everything on system startup
      • Everything Options - 1.5.0.1393a (x64) > General > ✅ Everything Service
      • Everything.ini
        stop_service_on_exit=1
        Can I avoid killing the Everything Service every time I...?
        The Everything Service will be (after exiting Everything 1.5a)
        - only be paused - Status: Stopped.
        - NOT be uninstalled!
        - restarted when Everything is restarted.
        _______________
        Alternative option with a bookmark:
        Upgrading Portable Version Successfully,
        Everything 1.5.0.1384a adds a stop-service search command
        ... Everything will automatically restart the Everything Service after 30 seconds.
    2. Settings in Total Commander
      • wincmd.ini - section [Configuration]
        UseEverything=1
        Everything=C:\Everything\Everything64.exe -startup
        Everything=Path\to\Everything64.exe -startup -> OPTIONAL (recommended)!
        See: Point 13.1.a.
      • Directory hotlist (Ctrl+D)
        • Title: C:\Everything\Downloads <=> C:\Everything
        • Command: cd C:\Everything\Downloads\
          Target path: C:\Everything\
          (After calling it, the target path in my 'Directory hotlist' - configuration is shown as: cd C:\Everything\).
    3. Option: AHK-Tool 'QuickSwitch' (Save as... > Ctrl+Q: QuickSwitch Menu)
      To quickly access the directory previously called up via the Directory hotlist (Ctrl+D) in Total Commander
      during a download, I use this tool (Version 0.5dw9a).
      QuickSwitch - short summary
      cd %$STARTUP% (Pseudo environment variables)
      C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\___STARTUP_CTRL-Q_QuickSwitch.exe.lnk
      See also: QuickSwitch and JumpToFolder AHK scripts
  2. Executing the upgrade/update

    - 'Everything' was started automatically based on the settings after PC startup and is located in the system tray.
    - Total Commander has already been started.
    - The “Textify” tool has already been launched due to a “Startup” entry. (cd %$STARTUP%)
    1. Pressing the "Pause" key or clicking on the Everything icon in the system tray brings Everything to the foreground.
    2. Keyboard: File | Exit: ALT+F4 (Global), F10 (Global) ... or Alt+X (self-created bookmark) ...
      - completely exit Everything, i.e. the icon in the system tray has also been removed
      - terminate the Everything Service (status: stopped), but do NOT uninstall the Everything Service
      - remove the Everything Service from the Task Manager under “Processes”
    3. Switch to Total Commander to open the download directory of Everything using the Directory hotlist (Ctrl+D), e.g.
      Left: C:\Everything\Downloads\ ... Right: C:\Everything
    4. Click on the download link.
    5. Right-click on the file “Everything-1.5.0.1393a.x64.zip”, then click on the menu item “Save link as”.
      The window with the title “Save as” will appear.
    6. Option: Press Ctrl+Q to open the “QuickSwitch Menu” (-> compiled AHK script: QuickSwitch.exe).
      This lists the most recently used paths in Total Commander (or Windows Explorer).
      Either click on the path C:\Everything\Downloads or press the corresponding number, e.g. 1, to select it.
      The path has been selected in the window titled “Save as” -> press the “Save” button.
    7. The download has been completed.
      Right-click on the file “Everything-1.5.0.1393a.x64.zip” and then select the menu item: “Scan with Microsoft Defender...”
    8. Position the cursor on the file “Everything-1.5.0.1393a.x64.zip” and press Ctrl+Page Down keys
      to display the file “Everything64.exe”.
    9. Copy the file “Everything64.exe” to C:\Everything and overwrite the existing file.
      The “Backspace” key closes the .zip file.
    10. Start 'Everything'
      The Everything Service will also start and the status will change
      FROM: Stopped
      TO:     Running
      The Everything Service will reappear in the Task Manager under “Processes”.
  3. Duration: <1 minute (about 30 - 40 seconds)
