AimAtFile

Description

AimAtFile helps you find files by their content. It provides content search (also known as full-text search) functionality based on Microsoft Indexing Service included in Windows 2000 and Windows XP. There are many third party file search utilities. But they scan all files each time you try to find a file. With AimAtFile Indexing Service scans files in the background as a low-priority process and AimAtFile requests this index and returns search results. You receive a list of files matching your query almost immediately. You can perform a content search for files of many types: Microsoft Office Documents, HTML, PDF, Plain Text, etc.
Searching files Windows Explorer also uses Indexing Service however ineffectively that is a usual drawback of all multi-purpose solutions. These disadvantages often give the impression that Indexing Service does not help Windows Explorer to find files. So users often switch Indexing Service off. If you are one of them we offer you to switch Indexing Service on and try our program. You will be surprised how quickly you will find files you are looking for.
The program is easy to use. The interface is very intuitive. Run the program, type a query in the Query box, click Search and you will get a list of relevant files. The query may be simple (just words that target files contain) or Boolean expression or you can create more precise queries using Indexing Service query language.
You are able to use AimAtFile effectively even without any special skills. And you use it more effectively if you are familiar with the Indexing Service query language and you know how to create and tune up Indexing Service catalogs.
