Good improvements, but I still can’t restrict what drives to search for.
Example
D: some_search
It always finds all entries regardless of the drive.
This is very annoying if you have backup drives with the same files and dirs as C:
The Ignore list is no option as there are not only backup files on this drive.

listary-core.exe Unable to ProcessPrng function to bcryptprimitives.dll

Windows 7 version 7601 Service Pack 1

You can use D:\ some_search to restrict the drive.

Sorry, starting from Listary V6, Windows 7 and XP are no longer supported. Some versions of Listary V6 might still run on Windows 7 and XP, but we cannot guarantee that every update will be compatible.

Thanks, that works.

Hi, since new update, Listary always throws an exception after few minutes:

I can confirm the issue too.

Maybe please also add download link for old versions in case current beta is crashing.

The only link I found is https://www.listary.net/download/beta/Listary.exe

I want to download the release just before the latest.

LISTARY 6.3.0.67 BETA.EXE 12.1 MB

Listary 6.2.0.42 Stable
https://www.listary.net/download/Listary.exe

The listary 5 is still snappier then listary 6. The listary 6.2.0.42 is stable but still slower than version 5. For me, all beta versions get slower with time. Then all of a sudden, listary stops functioning (doublt Ctrl does not work). If I try to right click listary in the taskbar, it gives a black window. Finally, I have to endtask and end listary.
I have gone back to the stable version…Lots of improvement required in listary 6…No doubt the functionality is better than version 5

This issue was fixed in V 6.3.0.71.

Could you specify which part is slow? Is it slow to start, slow in displaying search results, or something else?

You could try version 6.3.0.71, as a bug in version 69 might cause crashes.

The same issue still persists with 6.3.0.71

Could you please send the log files to support@listary.com? Thanks.

  1. Run ‘Listary.Diagnostics.exe’ as an administrator, located in the ‘C:\Program Files\Listary’ folder.
  2. Click ‘Export Logs’ to export the log files.
