How to use the Everything file search tool, I believe that many inexperienced people are at a loss about it. Therefore, this article summarizes the causes and solutions of the problem. Through this article, I hope you can solve this problem.

I don't know if there is such a situation: when you copy or download a file, you always find a folder and put it at will. As a result, there is often a very embarrassing phenomenon: the next time you need to use this file, you often can't find it. When there are more and more files on your computer, and sometimes you urgently need a file but don't know which directory you are in, most children's boots may open "my computer" and search in the search box in the upper right corner, only to find that it is simply tortoise speed. for me who is impatient, there is really no way to wait, so what should I do?

Don't be afraid, today I would like to recommend a document search artifact-Everything. There is no trouble searching from this file.

Everything is a file search tool developed by voidtools, which is described on the official website as "locating files and directories based on names in real time (Locate files and folders by name instantly)". It is small in size, simple and easy to use, quickly index and search, occupies very low system resources, tracks file changes in real time, and can also be shared and searched in the form of http or ftp. Note: 1. Search only file names, not file contents

2. Only applicable to NTFS file system, not suitable for FAT32

3. Perfect support for Chinese (starting from V1.2.x).

Current Everything supports multilingual interfaces. Just type a few letters or Chinese characters in the search box, and the search results will appear in front of you in real time. Then, you can directly double-click a result to open the file, or you can directly copy, delete and other common operations in the result.

Maybe you still like the Chinese interface, just choose the simplified Chinese language when you install it.

Efficient search for "and" or "? tip 1: you can enter multiple keywords in the search box of Everything, separated by spaces, indicating that the search results should include all keywords. You must be familiar with this practice, because it is the usual practice of search engines.

Example 1: type (excluding quotation marks, the same below) "Li Bai Beijing 08 jpg", you can quickly find some photos.

Tip 2: correspond to the "and" or (OR) operation, which is represented by a half-corner vertical bar: |. This is very useful when you are not sure of the exact description of the key words.

Example 2: "jpg Li Bai | libai Beijing 08", "Free | freeware".

Extension: since the space means "and", how do you represent the real space? Very simple, add English half-corner quotation marks, such as "program files".

Everything supports regular expressions, or some simple regular expressions. But for most users, that's enough! The regular expressions supported by Everything are: ()? * +. [] [^] ^ ${mjjinn}, see the official FAQ for details.

Finally, if you often need to do a quick search by file name and the disk uses the NTFS file system, then Everything is the first recommendation tool. If you need to remotely search for files on other computers, then Everything's server sharing feature is more appropriate.
