Here’s how to find every file and folder on your PC \u2013 the answer is Everything Search Engine.<\/p>\n

Ever since updating my computer from Windows 7 to Windows 10, I have experienced difficulty using Windows to search for files. If you\u2019re like me, there\u2019s nothing more frustrating than spending precious time searching for a file or a document and not being able to quickly pull it up.<\/p>\n

Finally, Ankit found the solution to my problem! It\u2019s called Everything<\/strong> Search Engine<\/strong> by Voidtools.<\/p>\n

\"Everything<\/p>\n

Everything Search Engine<\/strong> is a desktop app that acts like a search engine, except that it does everything on your computer instead of the Internet. The app works for Windows 10 to rapidly find files and folders by name. No matter where you may have saved the document, as long as you remember part of the file or folder name, it will pop right up during an Everything Search Engine<\/strong> search. Unlike a Windows search, Everything Search Engine<\/strong> shows you all of your files and folders so you can find what you need.<\/p>\n

All you need to do is download the free Everything Search Engine<\/strong> app from the Voidtools website<\/a>, install it and let it run. The first time the app runs, it miraculously creates an index consisting of the name of every file and folder on \"Thisyour device. This takes about two seconds, literally.<\/p>\n

Once the indexing is complete, Everything<\/strong> Search Engine<\/strong> will continually update your files and folders, so you\u2019ll never worry that it\u2019s not up-to-date with the latest documents, images and files you save on your computer.<\/p>\n

Here is what the icon will look like on your computer. \"Everything<\/p>\n

When you need to find a document, simply enter part of the name of the file or folder into the search field. Almost instantly, results will appear. You can also search for file extensions, such as .doc or .jpg. If you have a large folder of documents, you can also search just that folder for the specific file you need.<\/p>\n

If you experience any problems, Voidtools offers both a forum and thorough support documentation to answer your questions. Everything Search Engine<\/strong> also gives you options on the language you want to use.<\/p>\n
