QuickSearcher is a file search tool. Decided superiority is Preview for text search (as well as preview for graphical files), ability to search within several folders (multi directory search) or within search results, setting favorite search folders and off course, ability to save that search results.

"No glitz, just does what it is supposed to, quickly"
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Pros
Searches hidden files(even Temporary Internet Files), Fast. Doesn't use resources when it is not being used by creating a constantly running startup program. Don't forget wildcards(*) when you use it.
Cons
None to speak of. It is is not as glitzy as the other products but does a better job of finding files
Summary
Developers who spend time writing code that does what it is designed to do well and worries less about look and feel, are on my A list. This is one of them.

"Fast, Accurate, Easy to Use"
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Pros
This is a great tool for searching for text directly in files in directories on your computer. It is very fast and accurate. It is very easy to use as well.
Cons
I was unable to search the contents of a remote user's computer. Searching on a network server worked though.
Summary
It's fast, accurate, and free.

"Better that XP built-in search, and free."
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Pros
I've used this freeware program for 3-4 years. I don't use it much, but when I need to find certain text strings in hundreds of php files, this is the best. Go to the folder you need to search, right click the folder name, and select QuickSearcher.
Cons
Yes, it would be slow if you search the entire C: drive, but who does that? The full featured version that AKS-Labs sells (File Search Assistant) is $70 - too much in my opinion unless you specifically need the extra features, which I don't.
Summary
Even with the new XP 4.0 searcher, I still use QuickSearcher. Sometimes Microsoft just doesn't get it. No-frills results is better than slick-looking mediocrity.

"Poor Program(sloooow...Yawwwn)"
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Pros
free
Cons
Didnt find what I was looking for, and took ages to search.Not for me I'm afraid

"Search not so quick..."
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Pros
It's free.
It's quick and accurate if you don't search within ZIP files...
Cons
I wanted it because it could search for files within ZIP archives, but it takes FOREVER!! Plus, even though I specify an extension, it still gives me a bunch of other types of files. It also seems to take a lot of memory. I couldn't finish my search (it's been over 2 hours since it began) so I couldn't try extracting directly from the program or printing or exporting my result list to a spreadsheet.

"terrific text search"
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Pros
Text search looks in all documents (even html and php) for search term. It displays results and even highlights the text you searched for within the document! I recommend it for programmers and web designers. Also, the program loads much faster than Windows' default search.
Cons
The filename search could be better. Unless you surround your keyword with *, it searches for filenames that are strictly named that keyword.

"works great"
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Summary
i just needed to search for some text within a bunch of files ... it works great!

"It is a essential for developer who use XP"
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Summary
Like all of you know, since XP's optimised search feature excludes files of certain extensions, this tool is a blessing from god for Java developers like me. You can search inside Java, JSP, Zip, Jars, and almost all *.*. Case sensitive searches are also possible. You can right click on a directory and you can select Search by QuickSearcher, it will only search within selected directory. I LOVE IT!

"Doesn't search well inside zips"
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Summary
When set to search in all files, the product seems to search regular files fine. However, it doesn't seem to search all file extensions within a ZIP file.
-
"Now that Windows XP doesn't work - you need this"
Version: QuickSearcher - Freeware edition 1.4
Summary
Since Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom, decided that with the release of Windows XP people would no longer need to search the contents of files for a particular string, unless of course it was a Microsoft created file such as a DOC, an XLS or a TXT, this little gem gives XP users what all the older generation of PC users, still running Win 95, Win 98 or Win ME, have still got. I write software in Progress, which saves source code in files that end with a .W extension, and of course Windows XP does not consider this to be a valid extension for a text file, so refuses to search the contents of these files for the string I am looking for. Quicksearcher does exactly what you tell it to do - search the contents of files that end in .W, and if the string I specify appears within that file, include the file in the list. Perfect.
