I found that in some cases even searching for a short string of text that I placed in a TXT file on my desktop could not be found due to a small configuration that caused the application to filter out some of the most basic searches. You also have a search wizard that can help newcomers work through the process of searching for that particular file.Īlthough there is an expert and standard mode the application can still be a little difficult to use for some users. If you’re looking for a robust file locating application and feel like all of this sounds too complicated for you, there’s also a check box that turns ‘Expert User’ on and off making the search field. There is a whole slew of ways to help narrow down your searches by selecting certain formats to search within, selecting a range of dates, and even options to search for scripting files. There are plenty of additional functions that you can use to help narrow down your search as well like a “*” wildcard as well as Boolean searches like using “and, or, not” expressions. The user interface for FileLocator Pro allows for using DOS expressions, Boolean searches, exact word matches to search for files names and the contents within the file. FileLocator Pro is an excellent tool that does an extensive search with a wide range of formats. Whether you’re searching for an old cooking recipe that you only remember a few of the ingredients or looking for a piece of code that wrote years back in school. FileLocator Pro offers an extensive searching ability that doesn’t just search for files by their file name, but also searches the content within the file. When you see Pro in FileLocator Pro’s title you can trust that the developers at Mythicsoft are serious about making an application that certainly is a pro at finding files. " Helps you managing your information better."
