While this executable helps solve word search puzzles, you'll be befuddled as to how to start and disappointed by its errors. Although Wordsearch Solver has a simple, utilitarian interface, it has no help file and its prompts give little guidance. At launch, you're asked whether you want to read a puzzle from a text file. Select Yes, and the application loads the file into the viewer. In our tests, however, we input words that could be found in the puzzle and got erroneous "Not Found" messages. If you want better results, select No at launch. You can then specify the puzzle's dimensions, create a puzzle, input your solutions, and get quick, accurate results. We were disappointed that this program doesn't log all your entries. Although Wordsearch Solver is effective in locating those hard-to-find words, it would be more effective if it weren't riddled with bugs.

Feature Lacking

Pros
finds words very quickly
Cons
logging of previously found words only finds first instance unable to edit out mistake in word search not very flexible
Summary
Does what it says, but is very feature-lacking<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Jun 15, 2009<p/>Try wordsearchsolver.tk much better even though it's a work in progress

Pros
It solves word-searches very effectively.
Cons
Little slow on typing it all in, but that's as good as anything can do right now, until technology develops to the point where it can read the puzzle and the words from a scanned image.
Summary
It's free, it works, download it.
GREAT
