As the name suggests, Quick Search is a lightweight utility designed to make your life easier when it comes to performing various queries among several search engines.

The application is portable, so you don’t really have to bother with installation or configuration, but rather just decompress in the desired location and you can search for anything. The tool comes with a rather small interface that is designed as a single line, but you can expand it and check out the search engines available by hitting the x button.

It is worth mentioning that the search is not working locally, but on the web and the app displays the keyboard shortcuts for the various search engines available. Speaking of search engines, the tool can quickly prompt you to Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo or Wikipedia, just to name a few.

If any of the default search options are of no use to you, then you can use the F8 key to add your own website or custom search query. While you may need some time to get used to the new hotkeys, the truth is that your searches are going to be simplified in the future and increase your productivity. As, after all, you will be opening websites and other sources with just one click.

An alternative would be to edit the config.txt file - inside the decompress folder - and simply add the desired sources and websites there. From the same location, you can also change the size, location and font that appears with the tiny interface.

In the eventuality that you are looking for a tool to help you explore various results on a topic across several search engines, then perhaps you can consider giving Quick Search a try.
