Sometimes, the built-in search feature of Windows just doesn't do enough and when it does, it isn't fast enough for versatile enough for power users. That's where InSight Desktop Search comes in handy with its ability to index multiple hard drives with Google-like search features like "-" to exclude words, " " to include them and using AND or OR for more refined boolean searches.
What's great about Insight Desktop Search is that it's super fast and indexes files within minutes without really putting strain on your PC. It includes quick previews with small thumbnails of different types of files.
The advanced search functions of this engine makes InSight stand out and as always, we're thrilled that it's freeware. It can even find Wikipedia entries and installed applications.
