hi, ive somewhat managed to set this up.

but i admit i have some more "reading" to do.

Anyways, i use it on a laptop and i have 4 external harddrives, 2 at home and 2 at work.

Ive set it to update at certain times during the day.

But my problem is that when it updates and not one of the drives are connected, the results for that drive are erased.

Is there anyway to prevent this? to keep the search results

for instance im at home, do a search and find a file located at "H: work hd 1"

Locate32 question:

ive used it at it seems good, but i have 1 user problem.

On the laptop theres 1 hidden partition for a backup/restore program i use.

Locate32 detects this partition and errors out, and the search stops.

Theres the custom settings where you select partitions, but heres another problem.

Since this is a laptop, its used with maybe 4 different external harddrives, spread over different locations.

And the program errors out again if one of these are not on.



sum up: shouldnt there be a way that the program doesnt halt if it cant search one partition?

Edit..found it..hm typical.

Easy to miss, and should maybe be unchecked at start
