Upon starting it for the first time with your computer, it will build a database of all your files, but it does this fairly quickly and updates all of the displayed files and folders as you type, narrowing down your search in a “live” sort of way. It’s portable, free and just an all around great program. Search Everything is probably the most renowned search application. In summary, UltraSearch is better at handling file system redirection issues in 圆4 than Everything is, but UltraSearch isn't perfect either.Have you ever searched for a program, file or folder on your computer only to discover that the default search in Windows takes longer to display your search results than it would for you to go find it manually yourself? I sure have, and I’d imagine that most Windows users have as well.Īlthough there are some things you can do to improve searching with the Windows Search there are some excellent alternatives to the default Windows Search that you should consider. These applications are all free and allow you to get your results quicker and more efficiently and some even display more accurate results. The issues noted in points #2 and #3 are due to file system redirection in 圆4.
However, both programs show incorrect information when right-clicking the file in \windows\system32 and choosing Properties.ģ) When there is a file in \windows\system32 for which there doesn't exist a file of the same name in \windows\syswow64, Everything lists the file but shows no details, whereas UltraSearch shows details. This is probably the true cause for the missing files that I had noticed when testing Everything awhile back.Ģ) When there are files of the same name within \windows\system32 and \windows\syswow64, Everything will show incorrect information for the file in \windows\system32, whereas UltraSearch will show the correct information for the file in \windows\system32.
There are many hard linked files in Vista and Windows 7 within \windows. I've done more testing of Everything v1.2.1.371 and UltraSearch v1.50 in 圆4.ġ) Both Everything and UltraSearch will not show hard linked files - see.
