General • Re: shutting down everything for diagnostic purposes - any concerns?

So if I shut down the service and shut down Everything, and then restart Everything, how does Everything "catch up" with all the activity that occurred while it was shut down? Would this force reindexing?
By reading the USN Journal entries. Typically the USN Journal contains at least a week of changes.
So if you exit Everything (Menu => File => Exit), you have a week to test :). No need to stop the service; it does nothing on its own.

When you start Everything again, it will read the USN jourals for changes (every NTFS disk has one) and Everything updates the matching entries in the index. No reindexing required.
