HI
I like the voidtools Everything search & indexing utility.

i use it frequently but i have to reinstal it incuding typing my pw and waithing for installation to finish everytime ?

is it possible to click somewhere to open it without having to always reinstall it ?

but note that since my pc is slow i dont want it to always be running. just open it and run it without the hassel time of installing it ?
Here is what appears in middle of screen when i click the shortcut icon to use voidtools Everything:

Your own user account should be an "administrator" account, and that's the account you should have been logged in to to install voidtools Everything.

You should also be logged in to that account to use voidtools Everything, and for everyday PC usage.

Can you confirm that your own user account is not an administrator account, and if it isn't, why is that?

Is another member of your family the administrator ?

Side note: All your screenshots are too small to be of any use.

hi

my research on safety virus and that stuff (from malekal i think) told me that if you run in admin mode when surfing your at risk of installing stuff unwanted as when you do your everyday browsing without the admin privilege your are lat safer .
i own the 2 sessions . has written on my admin it works direct but in my non admin it asks for pw(non installation asked anymore)


plz can you test those for me if 1 2345 allow you see correctly?

Correct...you should not use an Admin account for day to day operations.

This particular behavior with 'Everything' is why I don't use it anymore.
It is still installed on one or two of my systems, but not used.
