While the Windows 7 search function is vastly improved, Everything is an administrative tool that locates files and folders by file name instantly for Windows. It locate files and folders by name before you blink your eyes!
Unlike Windows search “Everything” initially displays every file and folder on your computer. You type in a search filter and it will then limit what files and folders are displayed.
Features:
- Small installation file
- Clean and simple user interface
- Quick file indexing
- Quick searching
- Minimal resource usage
- Share files with others easily
- Real-time updating
Everything indexes files very fast too! It only uses file and folder names and generally takes a few seconds to build its database. A fresh install of Windows of say about 20,000 files, will take about 1 second to index! 1,000,000 files will take about 1 minute! That’s how fast it is!
