AimAtFile - Ultra fast file search utility

Tired of file searches taking forever? With hard drives getting larger and larger it's taking longer and longer to find stuff.

AimAtFile Fast File Search is a software tool to find files by their content. It provides content search (full-text search) functionality based on Microsoft Indexing Service included in Windows 2000 and Windows XP. It lets search for files of many types: Microsoft Office Documents, HTML, PDF, Plain Text, etc. There are many third party file search utilities. But they scan all files each time a user tries to find a file. With AimAtFile Indexing Service scans files in the background as a low-priority process and AimAtFile requests this index and returns search results instantly. AimAtFile Fast File Search provides the following features:

- Fast searching. AimAtFile uses fast and powerful Microsoft Indexing Service to search files by their content.
- Local computer and network searching.
- Flexible queries. You can enter a simple query (a word or phrase), Boolean expression or Indexing Service query language expression.
- File masks. The program allows to define one or multiple masks to search files using wildcards and Boolean expressions. You also can search for all files matching your content query.
- Specific folders searching. You can define a root folder to search. If you do not define it the program searches all folders in the scope of the specified Indexing Service catalog.
- Specific catalog searching. You can specify a catalog to request. Otherwise the program requests the System catalog that always exists on your computer.
- Results sorting. Results can be sorted by a file name, Indexing Service rank or modification date.
- Results paging. To increase performance results are added to a result list in pieces of a page size. When the number of results is more than a page size only one page is placed to the result list at first. Other pages are added when you scroll down the list.
