Hello. I have file-indexing error every startup and want to fix it. I saw old thread about exluding folders from indexing and it is not my solution. The project I am working in contains 67 000 files and I need a way to tell the editor to index all these files without a worry. Can you add this option in cofiguration file?

Brackets will normally index all the text files in the project. Also, update to 1.5 as has several indexing optimisations. Brackets is designed with up to 30,000 files and up to 2GB of text to search through. 67,000 files to search through is a bit high to ask of a brackets project right now, but the searching should happen. Could you go to debug>show developer tools and paste the console logs here? Also, can you go to help>health report and comment the report here.

I have latest brackets version in windows & still it is showing indexing error.

This is my health report:

use extension brackets file tree exclude to exclude nodemodules for the project listing. That should remove all the files from brackets project and index.

I know about this extension. I want to use brackets for medium size project with thousands of files excluding npm-folder. I understand that indexing of large amount of files requires large amount of RAM and I have this RAM. One thing that I need is to tell brackets to use my RAM and let me work with 60 000+ files project

Started getting this error consistently in my project for the last week or so. This is despite installing the file-tree-exclude extensions. Indeed I have tried all three listed on the registry to no avail (including deleting brackets and all preferences/ application data). Health Report data included:
