    I am looking for software to scan my drives for every photo on them.


    I am looking for software to scan my drives for every photo on them.


    I have many drives with photos on them, scattered in many files.
    Perhaps there are duplicates on them, I do not care.
    I just want to be able to accumulate single photos from every drive, regardless if it's a duplicate or not.
    Once I have them all in one place on disk, then I will worry about eliminating duplicates.

    If any Forum use could "recommend" a program that would do this for me, I would appreciate it.

    I originally had this post on Software but did not get any reply's.

    Run the program Everything.exe linked to in my signature below. In Everything.exe check off this option shown in my screenshot.

    A very old friend was found.


    It was good to see her again.

    Thank you!

    @S1W2...
    I've been using Everything for a few years and I never even noticed the "Search" function in the Menu bar... much less the screen you posted.

    Makes using Everything even better! Thank you!

    It was a struggle to create Removable Media for W10.


    It appears that a non-double layer DVD is too small.
    I tried but no cigar.
    Being antiquated and a novice, I searched through all my non-written DVD's and found 8 of 30 unused.
    I popped one in and started the Burn.
    After about 45 minutes, I received a Failure Message, please see the Attachment One.
    I researched the Error Code which asked me to "Disable Third party Antivirus".
    Well, I was afraid to do that and would have had to figure out how.
    I started searching again for a 16GB Thumb Drive to try the DVD alternative.
    I found one which had photos of a trip to Alaska I took over a decade ago.
    I moved the photos to a Desktop Folder and formatted the Thumb Drive.
    Again, after about 45 minutes the Thumb Drive creation ended but this time successfully, please see Attachment Two.
    It seems strange to me that Microsoft would wait until the end of writing the DVD to check for a Third party Antivirus.
    Why not do that first and save the User 45 minutes and avoid creating a DVD Coaster?

    Thanks to everyone who responded.

    PS I do not understand why Attachment Two fails to appear in my Post?
