FinderX - application for extremely fast and easy search for files and folders.

With FinderX you can make search through all your drives (including removable). Search is done by file and folder names and by its main attributes such as: size, modified/created/accessed time, hidden, system, compressed, encrypted, and so on.

  • You can do wildcards search. Two wildcards are supported: ? and *

It means that files with names like myfile.exe, myfilename, supermyfile.log will NOT appear in search results. This feature helps to find files by name that a part of other commonly used name like "win" or "system"
