Did you run killev (or even oaf-slay) before firing up evo again?
Often that helps if some components are still active. 
Or you could try to start an empty search after restoring the folder.

In Evo-CVS, you are able to select auto-completion folders in the
config. That would solve #2. I'm not sure if something like this is
possible in 1.0.8

Hope, I could help.
