BUG: Incompatibility of plugin Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Explorer with Everything (1.5a)

• I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

Problem Description

If Everything 1.5a is used and properly installed as a service instead of Everything 1.4, the current latest version, IsEverythingRunningAsync will return false:

Flow.Launcher/Plugins/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Explorer/Search/Everything/EverythingAPI.cs

Lines 92 to 106 in c0f46f2

	public static async ValueTask<bool> IsEverythingRunningAsync(CancellationToken token = default)
	{
	await _semaphore.WaitAsync(token);
	try
	{
	EverythingApiDllImport.Everything_GetMajorVersion();
	var result = EverythingApiDllImport.Everything_GetLastError() != StateCode.IPCError;
	return result;
	}
	finally
	{
	_semaphore.Release();
	}
	}

More context on this might be revealed through the comment here:

Flow.Launcher/Plugins/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Explorer/ViewModels/SettingsViewModel.cs

Lines 405 to 425 in c0f46f2

	public string SortOptionWarningMessage
	{
	get
	{
	try
	{
	// this method is used to determine if Everything service is running because as at Everything v1.4.1
	// the sdk does not provide a dedicated interface to determine if it is running.
	return EverythingApi.IsFastSortOption(Settings.SortOption) ? string.Empty
	: Context.API.GetTranslation("flowlauncher_plugin_everything_nonfastsort_warning");
	}
	catch (IPCErrorException)
	{
	return Context.API.GetTranslation("flowlauncher_plugin_everything_is_not_running");
	}
	catch (DllNotFoundException)
	{
	return Context.API.GetTranslation("flowlauncher_plugin_everything_sdk_issue");
	}
	}
	}

To Reproduce

1. Install Flow Launcher and Everything 1.4, and observe that the Flow Launcher Explorer plugin works
2. Install Everything 1.5a (It is stated, that it seamlessly migrates from 1.4 to 1.5a which it does indeed), and observe the Flow Launcher Explorer plugin does not work

Dup #1716. Please try the fix in the comment. This is a known issue, and it's because Everything SDK is uncompatible with its alpha version.

Following up on your suggestion, #1716 (comment) worked.
