Where do i put the path in this script?
Nowhere. It has to be entered into the .ini file that is created on first script invocation

That make sense, I didnt see the ini file in the first place!
I have
Everything v1.5 (alpha) And
es.exe in
F:\Portable Software\Everything\Everything64.exe
How do i configure the ini and point it to this path?
Edit:
I got the script running but it cant find any results
When i type something and hit OK, a new tab shows up
Paper Folder: Everything
this view is empty
Any idea why?

Because es.exe didn't find your query in the Everything database?

You are using the lite version which doesn't support IPC -> es.exe won't work with it

In that case you're missing an .ini entry change
Everything-1.5a.ini
alpha_instance=0
