The Simplest Way To Search For A File On Your Harddisk Instantly

search for everything

Trying to search for a file/folder by the name? Want to do it fast and simple?

Here's a tiny little program that searches your files INSTANTLY the moment you're typing, and doesn't lag your computer at all; much better than Windows' built-in file search!

PS: However there's a catch, only NTFS harddisk format is supported. (Luckily your harddisk is probably using this format if it is bought not too long ago)

Here's a step by step, and very detailed guide on how to use it:

1) Step one, type in the text to search for..

     search file folder

2) Wait, there's no step two!

The software uses some special algorithm that indexes your entire harddisk within seconds. It monitors any changes to the file system so the results will always be the latest :)

Is 'Everything' a software worth getting? King Leonidas can't agree more.
