Cool tools: Index Your Files

by Celine on July 13th, 2008

When dealing with large number of files and an equally large amount of folders, getting your hands on important files can take precious time. Index Your Files aims to speed up and simplify that process by the use of indexing.

The software doesn’t need any installation – it’s ready to use once downloaded and extracted. When first run, the program will ask you if you want to create a database. The database refers to the set of files you would want to index.

Though the interface may look overwhelming for beginners, a short step-by-step instruction is available in the Help option. Once you have a database, you can go start searching for files.

Searching is a fairly straightforward process. How fast it conducts the search varies and depends on how deep your search parameter is. It took the application just a fraction of a second to search for files with a certain extension through an index with 37,000 files while a more specific search took longer.

It may be a bit daunting at first, but once you get the hang of using Index Your File, searching for those important files will be a whole lot easier.

Index Your Files is compatible with Win95/98/NT/2000/XP/Vista.
