Hello, I am looking for a 3rd party search tool wich is about similar to Windows XP search tool.
It should be able to open with the Ctrl+F key in the Explorer.
Thanks for the help and sorry for the mistakes (I'm not English)
There is something called check everything download it here. Everything Search Engine
Good luck
Ken
Oh and how do I enable the CTRL+F shortcut to be able to search directly in a folder ?
Wy would you need something other than what's included? If you want to search in a specific folder, you can enter your search term right in the search box in Explorer. The search would be one of the last things I'd think you'd need a third-party replacement for. It puts XP's search to shame, and then some.
Hello, did someone find a software for that problem ? That would be great
You already have a search box in Explorer now...there's no problem that software needs to fix. In fact, if you hit CTRL+F, it moves a cursor up into that search box, so you can type what you want to search for. It's already there, by default, in Windows 7.
I have to be honest, I see a lot of requests for 3rd party search apps. For the life of me, I can't figure out why. Windows 7 search feature is absolutely incredible. As DeconFrost said "It puts XP's search to shame." When I first got Windows 7 installed, I quickly realized that the new search feature was by far, the most improved feature in Windows history. It's almost limitless. Most users having issues with Windows 7 search need to understand how to use it. With that knowledge, the power of what Windows 7 search can do is utterly astounding!
I'm not sure what you mean by resources. When I need to search for something, I just do it, and it finds the info/file/e-mail etc that I need. It just works. If I need to find a person's phone number in an e-mail from last year...it works. I'm not sure what you are after, in terms of resources, but if you post it, we can go from there. There isn't any config or learning to do, either. It's ready to go, out of the box.
The odd part is, it does exactly what the OP is asking about...already...by default.
