Google desktop was so great. It’s also weird how bad windows search and Mac search sucks.

Google desktop was able to find files anywhere in milliseconds. Still today if I search for a file on windows it takes many seconds and frequently misses the file. And there’s an indexing service that seems to peg my cpu every once in a while.

You want Everything. I've been using it for probably close to 10 years now, it makes searching on Windows not just bearable, but capable.
