Hi @h0rn3z0r, this is caused by reading the file icons from disk. Once I disable that in code, disk utilization is reduced again. Can you quantify "high disk usage"? For me it is very minor (<0.5 MB/s) and I would not consider that a problem.

Oh I see, the problem for me is not the amount of bytes read, the problem is that my hard drives are in standby mode most of the time and each search attempt causes unnecessary wake up and a minor freeze.
Everything has an /icon_shell_extensions=0
INI setting (see relevant issue). It would be nice to have such toggle in the Toolbar also.
I see, I guess that could be a power user flag just like in Everything. There would have to be a placeholder icon though so this will take a tiny bit of implementation effort.
