Everything Description

"Everything" is a powerful search engine designed for Windows that allows users to quickly find files and folders by their names. In contrast to the built-in Windows search feature, "Everything" shows a comprehensive list of all files and folders on the computer from the outset, which is where its name comes from. To narrow down the results, users can enter specific search filters. This software indexes only the names of files and folders, and typically takes just a few seconds to establish its database; for instance, a new installation of Windows 10, which typically has around 120,000 files, can be indexed in approximately one second. Additionally, "Everything" offers a content search function, but it's important to note that file contents are not indexed, making this type of search slower. When operating on a fresh Windows 10 installation, it will consume about 14 MB of RAM and less than 9 MB of disk space, while managing about 1,000,000 files will require around 75 MB of RAM and 45 MB of disk space. Users will see their search results update in real-time as changes are made to the file system. Furthermore, "Everything" is compatible with various versions of Windows, including XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10, making it a versatile choice for any Windows user. This efficiency and speed make "Everything" an essential tool for anyone needing to manage large volumes of files effectively.

    In the beginning...

    Date: Aug 06 2022

    Summary: Great for many months. No longer, though. I told a great many people about it but have now turned allegiance to Wise.

    Positive: In the beginning, it was the greatest search app I had ever seen. But now a few years later, it no longer even searches everywhere at all. Something I know is on one of my drives and the drive is not even searched. I found Wise Jet Search and it is as good as I used to think Everything was.

    Negative: It stopped searching EVERYWHERE. Thing I know are there are not found. Thankfully there are other alternatives to the Windows search.

    A massive time saver

    Edited: Jul 08 2024

    Summary: I’m so pleased. I’ve wasted so much time waiting for windows search to search the whole drive/s for a particular folder or file name, and this is instantaneous after initial indexing.. which is way quicker than windows ever has been..

    Positive: It is so quick… I can’t believe after dealing with file explorer for 30 yrs that anything like this was possible.

    Negative: So far, I’m just using it to find duplicate folders stored on different drives and portable drives, so I have found no problems at all.

    Find. Everything!

    Date: Oct 17 2023

    Summary: When I first installed it, I immediately searched for the most obscure file I could think of - a 15 year old Word document located on an old HDD. This program found it before I had finished writing the first word.. Meanwhile the standard Windows search takes up system resources almost 24/7 yet takes like 5 min to find that same document.

    I use it as a plugin for PowerToys, but works as a standalone too.

    Positive: Does exactly what it says, it finds any file on any drive instantly.

    Lightweight.

    Plugin for PowerToys.

    Negative: Doesn't search file contents.

    No simple "advanced search" (regex is not for beginners).

    I like the minimalistic UI, but it could do with some graphical updates and options. You can customize the colors in the results window but not the rest of the program.
