Everything – Free Search Engine for your Desktop

"Everything" is search engine that locates files and folders by filename instantly for Windows. Unlike Windows search "Everything" initially displays every file and folder on your computer (hence the name "Everything"). You type in a search filter to limit what files and folders are displayed.

The program is lighting fast and highly efficient. "Everything" only indexes file and folder names and generally takes a few seconds to build its database. A fresh install of Windows 8 (about 70,000 files) will take about 1 second to index. 1,000,000 files will take about 1 minute.

Note that "Everything" does not search file contents, only file and folder names.

Main Features:

* Small installation file (portable version is available)

* Clean and simple user interface

* Quick file indexing

* Quick searching

* Minimal resource usage

* Share files with others easily

* Real-time updating
