Hi, What is “forever”? One would imagine that if the filesystem is mounted, it contains files that would also be useful to index? All the others that are ignored are either special filesystems that don't actually contain any “files” in the usual sense (e.g. procfs, cgroup2), or things that genuinely must be reached over the network (e.g. nfs, lustre, cifs). I don't see that the WSL host filesystem falls into any of those categories. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: https://www.sesse.net/
