I can't vouch for whether this will do anything, but...

Note that you don't need to turn it off the the entire drive.  Navigate to 
the directory in which the "filepro" directory resides, right-click on the 
"filepro" folder itself, and then proceed as above.  (The setting will be 
under "general / advanced".) This will turn off indexing just for the 
filePro directory, leaving the rest of the drive as-is.
