FileSeek is a Windows program designed to help you locate files on your PC. Unlike Windows' default search tool, this utility gives you access to a lot of scan filters which help you get the results you need a lot faster.

FileSeek is available in various languages, comes with an effective search tool, and even lets you preview the found files, directly from its interface. You can always pause and resume the search process and open multiple tabs for separate scans.

Another great advantage is the fact that you can save search profiles (with defined scan filters) for later. These profiles can also be synced across Binary Fortress account so that you can access them from different computers.

The only thing missing from this program is an integrated help manual which might come in handy to users who are new to this type of Windows tools or working with search filters.

Other than that, nothing bad can be said about FileSeek as it does exactly what's being said on the homepage of the developer, without slowing down other running tools. I'd say it's definitely worth giving it a try if you're looking for a file search tool that's more feature-rich than Windows' default utility.

P
This is an excellent simple search program - but for one serious problem: it has too small a limit on the length of pathname that it can handle in its searches - with the result that its report list fills up with error messages because it couldn't search many of the folders on my C drive because of their long pathnames. I'm now kicking it off my system and using instead the excellent file / folder search facility in Free Commander - in my experience the best Windows file manager by far.
