Brilliant and blazingly fast. What hasn't been mentioned is that you can do most of the "normal" file manipulations, i.e. open, delete, drag and drop into another program, right-click, etc; from within "Everything", which makes life very easy if it turns up duplicates. It does, literally, index everything, incuding system files, if you want to go down that path, but be very careful! I use it a lot with .mp3 files, as well, to double-check that my back-ups are in place on two external drives. As an aside, I only found out that one of the drives (500 gig WE Elements) was pre-formatted to FAT (not sure why - for MAC use, as well?) when "Everything" wasn't indexing stuff on it, as it only works with NTFS, so I converted that drive's file system with no problem or data loss.

It works like updatedb and locate commands in Unix based systems. In other words, it uses databases to store information about directory structures and uses these databases in searches. The use of these databases provides very fast searching speed. The software includes a dialog based application as well as console programs which can be used to both update and access databases. Supported operation systems are Windows 98/ME/NT4/2000/XP/Vista. http://www.locate32.net/content/view/14/26/ I swear to this one tho Locate32 is software which can be used to find files from your harddrives and other locations.

But what if you only remember something that was IN the file? I have been a long-time user of indexed search tools, including Copernic and Google. My favorite remains the X1 tool (www.x1.com). It's fast and it covers File names, file contents (including PDF and ZIP), Email, and Contacts. I don't know how I ever lived without it.
