Previously, we have covered some very useful tools for quickly
searching through files and folder by defining certain criteria and
specifying parameters, such as UltraFileSearch and SearchMyFiles, and applications that allow you to search and delete duplicate files and folder on your system, like NoDupe. Today, we have a portable tool for you, called LookDisk
that combines both these functions and allows you to search duplicate
files, files and folder using filters, such as file size, date and
attributes, search for text in any file including PDF, displays the disk
overview and search within multiple archive formats. More on LookDisk
after the break.
The application has four searching modes separated by tabs given on the left side of the main interface. The four tabs are named Find Duplicate Files, Search Text, Search Files and Disk Overview. According to the developer, the application comes with the following features.
The Search Text tab lets you search for a particular word or phrase within files. The allows you to search using the Fast Text Search, which will disable some searching options, such as Whole words only, Lines shown before text location, lines shown after text location etc. You can also choose to make the search case sensitive.
The Search Files tab is the simple file and folder search that lets you search for files using various parameters, such as file size, date and attributes. Disk Overview displays the Drive, Type, Capacity, Free Space, File System, Label and Volume Serial, and lets you find the user-specified number of largest files in the selected directory.
The Options tab lets you toggle General settings, such as Show Search Progress, Enable Multi-Threaded File Searches, Show Found Files In Progress Window, Search Inside Archives and select which archives should be considered and chose folders which should be excluded from all the searches,
