Description
Need the file you edited last week, over 50 MB, that mentions a certain contract number? Windows Search either misses it or keeps an indexer churning your disk in the background. XSearch does it the old way: no index, it walks the folders only when you hit Search, and it gives you far finer conditions than the built-in tool.
The left panel lays out name, content, size and date fields. Size can be exact in bytes, KB, MB or GB, dates can filter by modified, created or last accessed, content can be matched as hexadecimal bytes, and Unicode and UTF-8 are detected automatically. The installer is under 600 KB and it is free.
Name and content search: "Any", "all", "exact phrase" and "without" options, case sensitivity, and regular expressions for both file names and words.
Exact size and dates: Precise size ranges and separate filters for modified, created and accessed times.
Search in results: Narrow the previous result set as many times as you like.
Context menu: Start a search from any folder through the system right-click menu.
Built-in HexView: View and copy file contents in hex, find text or byte sequences, select vertically, and open huge files.
