This article introduces you how to use WOX tools to solve the problem of Windows10 search is not easy to use, the content is very detailed, interested friends can refer to, hope to be helpful to you.

We know that Microsoft has made a lot of efforts to improve the search in Windows, but unfortunately, the search function of Windows 10 is still far from satisfactory. Compared with rival Apple macOS, Windows 10 is slow to search, has fewer things to search, and even makes it less convenient to exhale. What shall I do? Today, let's introduce a search artifact to make the search experience of Windows 10 catch up with that of macOS or even worse!

WOX, a search artifact called WOX, is an open source tool. If you are a developer, you can also click the link below to go to GitHub to view its source code.

WOX GitHub page: there are several versions of https://github.com/Wox-launcher/WoxWOX, and if you want to experience all the features, you'd better download the full version of Full. In addition to WOX itself, this version also comes with installation packages for Python and Everything, which are required to be invoked by some functions in WOX. If you have already installed these two software, you can install the regular version or portable version of WOX.

So where is the god WOX? Let's take a look.

The first is the way WOX exhales. It can use the shortcut key to exhale, press "ALT + space", and the WOX search box will pop up, which is very similar to the experience of macOS pressing "Command + space" to exhale. WOX's search box is also very simple, just a long input box, which is very similar to the style of macOS. The reason why WOX can respond so quickly is that it can reside in the background of the system, can be completely closed by the system tray icon, or call out the settings interface without worrying about whether there is any extra background.

You can exit completely through the tray.

Let's take a look at the features, which is the biggest highlight of WOX. WOX can connect to Everything, search files, naturally no problem, search efficiency and results are exactly the same as Everything.

Look for the software, no problem.

If you want to search the Internet, it's not a problem.

At the same time, WOX can also search for various settings of the system.

Even, it can act as a calculator, entering numbers and operation symbols to get the results.

Or, you can use it to run some CMD commands, which is very convenient.

Of course, this is not the whole function of WOX. Let's open the settings panel of WOX and get a glimpse of it.

The settings panel of WOX may be displayed in English by default, but it can also be manually adjusted to Chinese. Among them, you can find options such as whether to boot with the system, but perhaps the most practical is its plug-in system.

Yes, WOX supports the installation of plug-ins, through which more practical functions can be achieved. For example, after installing the translation plug-in, you can implement the translation function in the search box; after installing the Steam plug-in, you can directly start the installed Steam games, and so on.
