The search bar conveniently integrates with the Windows taskbar. Lets you perform sub-second searches of your PC's files and emails in a user-friendly interface.Įnables you to search from any application, anytime. The integrated into the taskbar (optional) Desktop bar is very handy
It contains a split screen preview window and of course, you can launch the files. It also tells you how many other non text files contain the words (movies, pictures, email, etc) I found the text I was looking for in seconds and additionally, the preview window has all the search words highlighted with the ability to search the document for each occurance. Fast fast fast, it found every file that contained the word and if you enter multiple words (doesn't even have to be an exact string, just all the words have to be in the document) it narrows the search on the fly. I tried out the search feature by looking for a few key words that I knew would be in one of my EQ log files. I type in "Mystique" and all my Mystique comics are there fast including mini series, etc. I have over 6,000 of them and although well organized, the dirctories go pretty deep sometimes. I originally wanted something better than Window's search engine to find my scanned comics. As an example, I have several years of Winnow logs files, some which are as large as 80mb of pure text, and this thing blew through them like nobody's business. That's amazing considering it indexes the bodies of all your text files including emails, word docs, txt, pdf, etc. It took about an hour for Copernic to index all of my files. This is an app that you won't be able to live without once you've used it. I recently bought a TeraStation (1 terabyte stand alone file server connected to my network via gigabit lan w/jumbo frames) and while transferring most of my files onto their new storage home, I realized that even with nice directory structures, it's still a pain to use file explorer to find stuff.Īt first I thought of Google Desktop and looked into that but while researching that, I found Copernic.

Copernic is another free desktop search engine which I think is better. You may have heard about Google Desktop which indexes your files and allows you to search for your local files using the Google interface.
