Hi

I am struggling to understand the interaction in the settings between macOS and Foxtrot regarding folders excluded from Spotlight. In my macOS Spotlight settings, no folder is excluded (see image):

/index.php?t=getfile&id=13&private=0

But in my Foxtrot settings, it shows my default user folder as excluded (I don't think I ever changed those settings):

/index.php?t=getfile&id=14&private=0

I am wondering which of the 2 states is now the effective one. I don't really want to exclude any folder from Spotlight. Does this mean that I need to enable Spotlight for my user folder under Foxtrot's settings?

Thanks for having taken the time.
