WinFindr

Post by therube »

WinFindr is an easy to use, yet powerful data searching tool for Windows.
WinFindr allows you to search for files, folders, registry keys and registry entries with multiple search terms at the same time.

In their benchmark section, they mention Everything.
(And incorrectly conclude that it couldn't find all of their search terms.
I corrected them @ https://macecraft.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.
I'll assume they'll update their web page?)


(I've not looked at the software, yet.)
(Looking briefly, v1.2, it leaves a lot to be desired.)
(In their video, Everything starts ~1.38.)
(Running WinFindr, sandboxed [for 'ncmain'], files only, it is way slower then their 10 second claim.
[It is possible it is getting stuck in a loop, because of the sandbox? Won't be the first software to do so.])

You did report that search terms that include a space should be double-quoted I presume?

Thanks for finding this!
