I was using Google desktop, Copernicus, Windows Desktop search on my laptop for file search. What i have realized is that i dont need them always. Amount of CPU/Mem/Drive it takes for indexing is not worth it.Most of the times, i dont search for my documents on my machine because i know the location it many times.Documents i get from others are in mails. So i use a tool which searches for documents just by file name, and dont use big indexes and way faster than the native windows file search.
Search Everything can search for files and gives you all the windows shell options. This is one of the Tool i found recently and love using it and reccomend others.
Well for mails i use Windows Desktop Search, because of its seemless integration with outlook. But i make sure that i dont use it for anything other than mails.
Download Search Everything
