Hi


I have noted that Copernic 8 seems to be constantly scanning files. This is frustrating why it is doing this as I have disabled Indexing in the options menu.


This makes no sense as there are no new files to index.


Please advise how i can stop the software constantly scanning


Regards


Desmond

[Desmond] -  Did you ever come up with a solution - other than leaving Indexing off?  I have also noticed that Copernic (running Ver 8.2.1) constantly Scans files, even with the default Refresh Intervals set.

Example: "Files, Pictures, Music, Videos" - Refresh Interval is Every 4 Days, but I have yet to NOT see the "Scanning File...." information line at the bottom of the main window UNLESS "Pause Indexing" has been activated.  

This keeps system drives constantly in use, and also consumes more CPU and Memory resources than should be necessary.

(Pausing the Index process halts Disk usage, but CPU and Memory usage remain relatively high: CPU usage exceeds any other open app, and Memory usage is the second highest.)
