Seems like a useful little program, but is it better than the free program “Everything”?
I’ll definitely try it out in that case. Maybe a good complement to Everything?Re: Is it better than the free program “Everything”?
Yes it is.
You’re missing the basic point of this program — not surprising, given the extreme verbiage of the person who writes the descriptions!
Example: Years ago you wrote something that briefly mentioned Grandma’s rocking chair. With this program you would search for the phrase “rocking chair” and it would instantly find all files with “rocking chair” in it.
Everything Search finds only file names, not file contents.published:
“Supports Windows 7, 8/8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit and 64-bit)”is inaccurate again, it installs just fine under Vista too. It will not run under XP as the installer ans main executable is built to require NT6.0 due to changes in the development environment used to build them.
[@Bruce Fraser] Your “review” of the product is that you intend in the future to try it out?

[@pnj] Yes, but will it run in Windows 3.1?
