I confirmed this from their FAQ too:ĭoes Everything search file contents? Yes, "Everything" can search file content with the content: search function. It will go through the file to search the text, but since it's not indexed, it takes a very, very long time. Voidtools Everything: Ultimately, it doesn't index content, and that's something I require. So, I think it's time to see if there are others contenders, thanks for all the replies here :) You stop paying, you go back to the free version(which is gimped beyond measure) Their live indexing(files changed are detected and reindexed on the spot) was absolutely incredible, but since v6 it does have an impact on regular work, not sure why. As time went on, we lost features(they later added many back as "plug-in" that you have to pay extra for), the single Pro version got split in multiples versions, and it shifted to an annual subscription model. I'd say the seet spot was around v4, it was fast, unobtrusive, and included everything. that's not good), not configurable enough.īack in the day I also tested X1, so I looked at it once more, but at 80$ US/year, it's definitively not for home users anymore.įirst, my system is recent, i5-8400 with 6 core and 32 GB of ram, and one thing I hate is noticing a slowdown while I work because of background tasks, so this is an important point for me, no slowdown.Įvery software I have tested either were free or had a trial version.Ĭopernic Desktop Search Professional: That's the version I have now, and I've used various versions for over 10 years. I tested it once more and it is still too slow, too high on resource(I *KNOW* when it runs. free or reasonable price for personal use.highly configurable so we can add/remove file type, folders etc.Fast indexing of names and content, and light on resource(as is, it shouldn't impact normal work on the PC while it runs).Is there still good software in that category, any recommendations? I was kinda shocked that the CDS market seems almost gone now(or, at least, no one writes about them anymore) Hi, I've been using the paid version of Copernic Desktop Search for many years, but bugs with PDF indexing and constant price rise, plius the turn to a subscription model, while not really providing new features, is making me look at alternative.
