Search files in a flash with SwiftSearch

September 23, 2013

Windows 8 has pretty decent file-search capabilities built in, especially if you learn a few tricks for smarter searches. Of course, not everyone has (or wants) Windows 8, and even those who do may find Microsoft's search engine lacking.

With it you can find just about any file, on any drive, in about the time it takes to read this sentence. In fact, forget sentence; the time it takes to read this word! SwiftSearch has nothing to install; it's a fully self-contained executable, which explains its "portable" nature: You can run it from your hard drive or keep it on a flash drive if you're looking to build out your portable toolset.
