Hi @Alloyd031, usually when requesting help it is useful to provide as much information as possible that helps other people understand the problem. In this case I would be interested in the exact exception message you are getting. Also the version number of EverythingToolbar you are using is quite important. Please also include the output of the log file. You can find it by putting %TEMP%\EverythingToolbar.log into the address bar of Windows explorer.

Thank you. I implemented a fix for that.

@srwi Hi, I still have this issue on Windows 7, I'm on the latest build.

Hi @ExtremeXT, unfortunately Windows 7 will not be supported anymore because I have no way to debug it.

@srwi

How about something like a VM? I can debug tests if you wish.

I already tried setting up a VM but had some problems so I lost interest in working on it. Sorry about that.

I am happy to accept pull requests though!
