1-abc.net File Finder

Finding files on your crowded computer can be a bit of a hassle, not to mention having to look through a whole array of computers on a network. It takes some time, and patience to use the Windows search tool for this operation, but it all becomes fast, and easy with applications like 1-abc.net File Finder.

Just to be easy to understand, and appealing to beginners, and experienced individuals alike, the whole operation takes you through a wizard-like setup, from start to end. First of all, you need to select a location, with the possibility to add more than one folder, but you need to use the browse dialog for this operation.

Moving on to the second step is where you get to define all parameters of the operation. The application provides several common file extensions for documents, pictures, executables, all extensions, as well as up to four customizable fields.

In order to narrow down results, you can also rely on time settings, either by pointing out at the exact date, before, or after a specific value, with a calendar to help you select more comfortably. Size also acts as a configurable search parameter, which can either be larger, or smaller than a value. Needless to say that you can search by name as well.

When all parameters are configured, hitting the “Next” button one last time initiates the search sequence. Results are shown in real time, with an impressive speed, but it’s best to leave the application alone until done, to avoid triggering any issues.

All detected items are shown in a table along with path, and size. Interacting with a file launches it. On the other hand, there’s the possibility to save all items to a custom location on your computer, or uploading them to a FTP server, given the right set of credentials is provided.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that 1-abc.net File Finder is a powerful engine which can look through local, or fixed drives, even on network computers for files defined by a decent amount of parameters. Speed is impressive, with results generated in real time, and option to save all files to a new location, or upload to a FTP server.
