Super Fast Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Windows 7 is a great OS, no doubt, but it makes me hate it sometimes. Just like CCleaner is superior to MS Diskcleaner, & Defraggler is superior to MS defrag, I wish Piriform made these programs: - Search replacement -> Replace windows 7 search with an XP style search (easy to search external/flash drives, etc), but allow 7 themes. - Image Viewer replacement -> Support animated GIF + smooth images when enlarged Nice dream for me, but I would love it! Hmmmm!!!! I think I could love 7 if that came true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kroozer Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 An excellent search engine, I use it exclusively. But it's not new, CT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_B Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Everything uses MFT hence much faster. FAT32 has no MFT so Everything ignores it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Fast Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 There's a new program called Everything that indexes drives SUPER fast. Take a look at it.Everything site AJ I have known about everything a long time. I have it as well as Locate32, & about 200 other ones. Trouble is, I don't know any that will replace Windows default search. In Windows 7, for example, if you search for OSK (onscreen Keyboard) in your currently open window, it will not show up (at least not till you change your index search settings, & it may not then, either!) But if you start typing in the start menu search box, it will show up! Everything is good & all, but can we get something to replace the "search" engine in 7? I am tired of having to feel like I have "two" search boxes to search to find some items, and I am tired of not being able to filter by size/date/name etc, unless you learn a ton of commands to issue search. I am also tired of trying to use 3rd party tools. I want something that offers to replace 7 search, then offers user ability to search specific drives for specific content on specific dates, etc. Kind of like XP does. But with the same modern skin & look as it has in 7 on aero. Thank you, guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
