Note:
File operations performed with software that does not support Alternate Data Streams (ADS) will result in ADS tags being lost.

Some software known to support ADS includes: XYplorer, Windows Explorer, Directory Opus (not enabled by default), GoodSync, Duplicate Cleaner, WinRAR (option must be enabled), FreeFileSync, and FastCopy (when AltStream is enabled).

Important: Windows Explorer may not preserve ADS when copying or moving files across different volumes (drives). Tools such as FreeFileSync and FastCopy (with AltStream enabled) generally preserve ADS during cross-volume operations.

I think you mean Properties indexing in Everything, not attribute indexing.

I use Properties indexing for a list of named ADS streams.
Defined in the ini file like this:
property_alternate_data_stream_ansi=Tag=Tag;custom property 0=Comment;custom property 1=Tag

The option is named "Index attributes"...
UTF-8 format is better for me.
