Instant File Find Free

Instant File Find Free is a lightweight file management application designed specifically for helping you search for files on your computer.

User-friendly layout

You are welcomed by a clean feature lineup that allows you to define the search process using just a few clicks, without being overwhelmed with tons of configuration settings.

Automatic mode for creating the cache

When you run the program for the first time, it automatically starts building the cache. This task usually takes only 1-5 minutes but this pretty much depends on the file collection that you have in your system.
The tool eats up CPU and memory only when building the cache; otherwise it is quite friendly with system resources. The search cache is automatically updated after its creation, and you may save the cache file to your system so you can upload it in the future.

Search capabilities

Instant File Find Free offers you the possibility to look for several preset types of files, namely songs, videos, documents, or pictures. In addition, you are allowed to filter the results by name, location, size, type, and modification date.
The tool keeps a list with all your recent searches and lets you change the font used for displaying the search results and refresh the list with results.
Last but not least, you can change the looks of the utility with the aid of skins, clean the search history, run the tool at Windows startup, automatically monitor and update file changes, and check the cache integrity when the program is launched.

An overall efficient search tool

All in all, Instant File Find Free mixes up a user-friendly interface with several handy tools for helping you search for files, and is suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
In case you are looking for advanced features, such as support for Explorer action, network drive, removable disk, search by location, size and date, toolbar customization, drag-and-drop actions, exporting options for the results, file path copying mode, and deletion, you can have a look at Instant File Find Pro.
