Fast files and folders search in Windows using an Everything alternative

We all like speed. But it gets annoying when simple tasks like searching for a file or folder on our system take a lot of time and effort out of our important tasks.

This article will tell you how to search for files and folders faster in Windows using Filezo and how it can be used as an alternative to Everything by Voidtools.

What is Filezo?

Filezo is a superfast launcher for Windows designed to make your computing life joyful. It gives you instant access to any of your files, folders and apps without the need to browse through hierarchical folders. Type and go! That’s it.

Here is are some of the key Filezo features:

  • Lightning speed access to any file, folder or app on your Windows PC.
  • Tag files and folders. Supports color-coded and hierarchical tags.
  • Pin frequently used files and folders on top of the list for quick one click access.
  • Add a note to any file without modifying the file itself.
  • Integrates with the Windows File open/save window. Directly select a file or jump to any folder in Windows File open/save window using Filezo.
  • Preview various types of files including audio/video. Install previewer add-ons to support more files.
  • Quick manage files (copy, rename, delete, move) directly from Filezo without the need to open your File manager like Windows File Explorer..
  • Share tagged files and folders with other Filezo users over network.
  • Share annotated files and folders with other Filezo users over network.
  • Quickly find and drag/drop a file over other apps such as the Internet browser, email app, messaging app etc.
  • Many more hidden nuggets designed to make file and folder access easier.

Searching using Filezo compared to Everything (Voidtools)

Searching for files: Filezo separates items on the basis of Files, Folders, Programs, Websites and clipboard. This way, the items are not mixed up with each other. This also narrows down the result list since you no longer have to search among unrelated items for the item you want.

Everything, on the other hand, does not separate files and folders and lists down every object in your system initially. There is a filter to only show objects of a particular type, which you can choose to separate these items.

Watch a short video on this feature of Filezo:

Transcription of the above video:

  1. Open the ‘Folders’ tab in Filezo.
  2. Type your keyword in the search box.
  3. Double click on the folder and that’s it.
  4. Let’s see how to tag folders in Filezo.
  5. Select a folder from the list and right click.
  6. Click on the ‘Tags’ option and assign the tag.
  7. Let’s go to the tags pane and edit the tag.
  8. Right click on the Tag and select the Edit option.
  9. We can change the tag color for quick identification.
  10. There are some key functions to manage the folders.
  11. Choose Explorer here to open the containing folder.
  12. We can add a comment to any folder using Note option.
  13. We can directly open the Windows File Explorer menu from Filezo.

Filezo helps you avoid full folder structure navigation to access subfolders. As mentioned earlier, it separates files and folders. So now, when you want to search for a particular folder, go to the “Folders” Tab of Filezo and type in your search keyword in the text box given below. It will find an item in less than 3 seconds, no matter how deep they are located in your system. Double-click on the desired folder to open it immediately.

Everything has a folder filter. Using this filter, every folder on your system is listed down, and you then have to type the folder you are searching for. The indexing and search offered by Everything is speedy.

Note: With Filezo, you can even add tags to your files and folders for easy access later on. Tagging feature doesn’t exist in Everything.

Everything, on the other hand, has the option to sort items based on Dated Accessed, modified, etc. But sorting the items based on it is really slow, and the long list of items still remains, only that they are now in a different order which doesn’t make much of a difference.

Filezo therefore proves an efficient alternative to Everything. The plus point is that there is nothing to learn. It is effortless and also works out of the box. Just install and see it working.

Filezo – An alternative to Everything

This post will highlight the ways in which you can work with files and folders easily in Windows by comparing the functions of Everything by Voidtools and an alternative, Filezo.

What is Filezo?

Filezo is a superfast launcher for Windows designed to make your computing life joyful. It gives you instant access to any of your files, folders and apps without the need to browse through hierarchical folders. Type and go! That’s it.

Here is are some of the key Filezo features:

  • Lightning speed access to any file, folder or app on your Windows PC.
  • Tag files and folders. Supports color-coded and hierarchical tags.
  • Pin frequently used files and folders on top of the list for quick one click access.
  • Add a note to any file without modifying the file itself.
  • Integrates with the Windows File open/save window. Directly select a file or jump to any folder in Windows File open/save window using Filezo.
  • Preview various types of files including audio/video. Install previewer add-ons to support more files.
  • Quick manage files (copy, rename, delete, move) directly from Filezo without the need to open your File manager like Windows File Explorer..
  • Share tagged files and folders with other Filezo users over network.
  • Share annotated files and folders with other Filezo users over network.
  • Quickly find and drag/drop a file over other apps such as the Internet browser, email app, messaging app etc.
  • Many more hidden nuggets designed to make file and folder access easier.

Select a file faster in the file open/save window

The file open/save dialog window that is shown by all Windows applications is very tedious to use. Filezo makes it very easy to select any file in this window. When the file open/save window opens, find & choose the file using Filezo. The file name will be automatically displayed in the File Open/Save window, after which you need to click on “Open.” That’s it.

Everything: This function is not available in Everything by Voidtools. You can easily copy or move an item from one place to another but not open or save them from within the program itself.

Quickly access files and folders by tagging them

Filezo lets you tag any file or folder in Windows. Tagging files help you to access a group of files/folders etc. in a few seconds, however deep they are in your system. This feature can save a lot of time. You can also send standard email replies to your clients by tagging clipboard items.

Everything: It does not have a tagging feature, but it does have a filter feature to sort items according to their type.

Tip: To find and launch a website faster, you can even create and use tags.

Everything: With this, you can add a list of files as a bookmark to access the same files easily for future use. However, you cannot search or access website history from browsers.

This short video will give you more clarity on this:

Transcription of the above video:

  1. As shown in the video, open the Files tab in Filezo.
  2. Let’s look up a file. Type the keyword and instantly get your document wherever it is on your system.
  3. To open any document, simply double-click it or press the Ctrl key and the number shown next to the file name.
  4. Now let’s look for another file inside a specific folder.
  5. Use the backslash prefix to search inside a specific folder. And the files are here.
  6. You can also save your favorite keywords to access the same results in just 2 clicks.
  7. Filezo supports advanced search options as shown in the video.
  8. To organize we will drag a tag from the tags pane and drop it onto the file, as you can see in the video.
  9. Filezo also allows us to show a quick preview of any file. It supports several file types including audio and video.
  10. Filezo can annotate any file or folder, just right-click and select ‘Note’.
  11. Type additional comment to the file for your reference without actually modifying the file. This can be really useful.
  12. Let’s open Notepad and click on File Open from the menu.
  13. As you could see, Filezo automatically integrates with every file open save window on your system. You can select an existing file or jump to any folder any deep, directly using Filezo.

Everything: This function is not available in Everything.

Thus Filezo proves very efficient, productive and easy at the same time.

  12. Another way is to type # in the search box and select the tag from the tags list.

Our Verdict

Both Windows and Filezo have minimal steps to tag files.

However, there’s a twist here. Windows has a limitation so it only permits tagging of images, videos, and documents. You might not see the tagging option even on supported file types on rare occasions, depending on the file format.

Also, if you use a different file system, or transfer or shift your files to other computers or external hard drives and thumb drives, then the tags are removed.

Thereby, we would definitely go with something reliable like Filezo.

Another cool thing about Filezo is that it allows searching by multiple tags also. Hold the Ctrl key and select the second tag button from the toolbar in Filezo. You will see the second tag being added automatically.
