Yeah, Everything is fantastic.

I've mapped Win+Alt+Space to activate Everything (Settings > Keyboard), then set "Clear Window on Execute" (Settings > General) to on.

Now a simple keypress gets me search, I can quickly navigate using cursor keys and on selection it closes the search window.

If I'm looking for something fancier I can use the keyboard shortcut, then Ctrl+R to enable Regex search and so on.

Fast and simple.
