Recoll is an open source  application for locating text from within files anywhere in a Linux system. It is based on the Xapian (search engine library) backend which enables it to effectively locate items based on keywords from within almost any kind of document, including compressed archives. Recoll supports file stemming and allows users to perform Boolean searches. The Boolean search method allows combining words and phrases using the words And, Or, Not and Near (also called Boolean operators) to limit, widen, or define the search. Recoll also auto completes the search query to provide results based on possible matches to a semi complete search term. Recoll is not just another indexing and search tool, as it can go as far as locating a keyword even from within an email saved in a mail client (such as Mozilla Thunderbird) , a Libre Office document or a compressed archive.

Quick Search is a fast alternative to Windows Search for quickly locating files and folders by entering a complete or partial name of the required content. It creates an index in the corresponding folders using relative paths, making data search more efficient. Unlike Windows Search, it offers a filter to restrict the searched items for better efficiency. It provides easy sorting options for viewing files in the search result by path, size and modification date. You can either view the searched items in a minimalist size or in the full mode which displays a complete window containing the searched files and folders. Quick Search can be used to search music, photos, web pages, generic files, folders, application setups or shortcuts and much more. Another good feature is that it supports file indexing of portable devices like USB drives and external disks, which makes it quicker to locate data on such storage devices. This intuitive tool has been developed by Glarysoft, which is famous for some of its efficient applications such as Glary Utilities and Disk Speedup. Read More

Indexing is a phenomena which saves the location of files and other content to make search real fast. It is very beneficial especially when you have loads of files or dealing with a lot of content. Windows has an inherent quality of indexing different locations including Outlook folders, and content. Once Windows 7 has the location from the index, then you can retrieve the data by moving directly to the location without invoking the search process. In this way, indexing can be considerably faster than scanning through all the folder to find the content or particular file. Outlook content, files, and folders have also been indexed consistently, if you want to change the way Windows 7 has been indexing Outlook 2010 content, then this post will help you a lot. Read More

Running a network is never an easy task, especially those with an abundance of shared files. Looking for a particular file or folder could become a next-to-impossible feat, where there can be thousands of files and folders accessible over the network of even a medium-sized corporate setup. For local disks and file systems, you get the search option - even if in the form of Windows' own search (which, by the way, is pretty decent in Windows 7) - but the same cannot be utilized for cross-network lookups. Network Search Engine answers exactly this issue.
