Search for ANYTHING using EVERYTHING

• Ever wanted to quickly find all the doc files in your PC?
• Or all jpg files where the name starts with D and ends with an A + contains a 1 in the middle?
• Love wildcards for searching??
• Even better, wish you can use regular expressions for searching?
• Wish that everything was indexed and it was a matter of typing to search for something?
• Want your files to be indexed REAL TIME but without hogging up your RAM?
• Love Google’s simple search box?

You need EVERYTHING! :D
EVERYTHING will search for ANYTHING and EVERYTHING the WAY you WANT it :D








Just give it a few minutes to index all your files and you are good to go! Just simply enter a query with/without wildcards and the results are immediately shown! Everything registers it self for file changes and automatically updates the index.
Everything is very low on resource consumption. I have made everything index all my files and that is exactly 301,695 files and it takes less than 20MB.




One of the most coolest features of Everything is that it can start an HTTP/ETP/FTP server on any port and (with username/password authentication) you can connect to your computer from anywhere and browse all the indexed files + download them :D




Other features include

• Context Menu Integration
• Export Search Results (txt format)
• Exclude items from your search (File/Folder/Pattern)
• Hot Key support
• Match cAsE/Whole Word/Path/Regex
• Use Boolean operators! (w00t!)
• Automatic Update
• Runs on Windows 7 (64-bit too)!
• Its FREE!

Bad Side

• No network location indexing (You need to run Everything on both computers and start an ETP server)
• No file content indexing (only file names)
• Only NTFS partitions supported!
• Windows Only!

Connectify! Share your Internet Connection, Wirelessly!

Ever wanted to share your Internet connection wirelessly?? You have 165 different WiFi activated devices and you wanted them all to have the same 100Mbps connection you get to your PC? Easy! Install Connectify! Connectify lets you virtually create/emulate a Wireless Access Point. No, it will not be an Ad-hoc network. You turn your laptop/desktop in to a REAL Wireless Access Point. No fancy configurations, no special hardware required! You only need a WiFi card (which almost all the laptops and new motherboards have built in).

Security? Will all my neighbors get free internet? Not a problem! Your WiFi hotspot will have WPA2-Personal (AES) encryption!

So what’s the catch? You know there is one, huh? Well Connectify runs only on Windows 7… All prior Windows versions are not supported. There FAQ tells you why…

Does it run on Windows Vista or Windows XP?

Sorry, not at this time. Connectify depends on improvements made in Windows 7 to operate. Frankly, Windows 7 is such a big improvement, that we suggest you're better off upgrading than waiting for us to get all this working on an older version of Windows. For more information on upgrading to Windows 7, see the upgrade guide on our web site.

Read their FAQ for more information.

Aw snap! My files are corrupted/missing! :(

Ever wake up in the morning only to find your nights of work is corrupted/missing or cant boot up your PC? Ever want to get back to an earlier revision of a file you were working yesterday? Two days back or one month back? :) There are two options! Keep track of several folders with the date, zip it and email it your self. There should be easier way, isn’t it? Yep! There is! Dropbox, your ultimate solution to backing up and automatic synchronization.

Setting up Dropbox is so easy and once installed it is setup once and forget type software. Dropbox, simply put, is a folder which everything you put in to is automatically synchronized with the Dropbox server + all computers you have linked up with your account. That means, if you have Dropbox installed both at home and office, both the folders will contain the same exact content as one will immediately reflect changes made in another and vice versa. How cool is that? :) This does not stop there, well sure you can link up more than 2 computers… so all the 65365 computers that you work on will contain exactly the same folder…

Now, lets say half way through your document you suddenly realize that you have done some changes to your document that you want back badly??? Normally, this is impossible! Because the content of the file is over written… only exception being you can keep on undoing… but what if those changes were done 7 days back? No worries! Dropbox to the rescue! Dropbox not only does automatic synchronization but also keeps track of all the changes made to your files… up to 30 days!! (Yeah you get unlimited undo history for the paid version!)

Yeah now you know why you need Dropbox! It will automatically detect changes in a file and synchronize it with the server and other linked computers! But wait! What about my 65 MB file??? Every time i make a minor change to it the whole file is getting uploaded again!!!? The answer is NO WAY! This is why Dropbox is the next big thing and this is why Dropbox is so HOT! Dropbox uses a technology called Delta Synchronization (lBock-level or delta sync) where only the part of the file which has being changed is only synchronized! Easy on the bandwidth and time saving! Plus, upload resuming is supported too! It certainly is smoking HOT!

Here is a complete list of Dropbox’s features

So what are you waiting for! Get Drop Box!

P.S : The above link is actually a referral link…No it doesn’t give me $0.25 for everyone who clicks it but i get 250MB of additional space (up to 3GB) for everyone who gets registered!

Common question? Yes! One morning, fresh, you check how much space is left in your C: drive and that 10GB is smiling at you making your whole day happy! You do your work, you play some games and you do all the www stuff you do everyday and everything is normal. Until, you see that weird message haunting you..

Where did all my space go??? Where is that 10GB i had in the morning?

Prime Suspects

• Wife (Nah! She never touches the PC)
• Dog (Hates anything except fresh meat)
• Children (Was at school)

Now which one took away my free space?? Lets hand over the case to Mr.CCleaner first! (There’s another Mister waiting to take over the case too)

 

CCleaner (Formerly Crap Cleaner),boasting powerful and expandable set of features will go deep down of your hard drive and search for all those unwanted junk files you never knew that was there in your hard drive.

It will first search in well known places for junk, useless and unwanted files reside ( Which is shown on the left side.. then it will search on places that most applications leave unwanted junk files… (Shown below)

 

 

The analyze button will start searching for the junk files and will display what was found… You will be amazed the first time you run it, if you have  never run this before…

The other amazing feature that CCleaner offers is cleaning your registry! It will clean all those pesky little entries that take up the space in your registry and slow it down!

OMG! Duplicate Files!! Not a problem anymore!

There was a time where it took me zillion hours to go through my playlist, my software folders and all my other load of images and videos….only to find they contain duplicates! Well though it took me zillion hours, i doubt whether i have done the job correctly!

But now it takes me only 10 seconds to scan my music folder, 15 seconds or less to scan my software list and less than 5 seconds to scan my list of images and get my hands on a neatly arranged, flexible and comprehensive list of duplicate files…all ready to be displayed in any customized way i want…

Ladies and Gentlemen, introducing Duplicate Cleaner by Digital Volcano. This too good to be free utility makes searching across directories and finding duplicates as easy as 1,2,3!

Digital Volcano, Duplicate Cleaner 1.3 (The latest version at the time of writing) starts with a very easy to understand interface!

First you need to decide where am i going to search for duplicates! You can choose any directory or a drive! Simply select it and click Add Path.

Now choose what you want to search :)

There are 2 handy sections, File Search and Music  Search…

The File search includes the basic search options. You can specify a File Filter (Wildcards) to limit which files to search for. The other amazing feature is check for the Same Content(CRC) which guarantees you almost 100% accurate search results :) Apart from that, you can search for same File Name, Size or Date.

The second option (Music Search, which saved me gigs out of my huge music collection) is the option to search for music files. It searches for songs with the same Artist, Title or Album.

Example result from my music folder may show that a particular song is there in 2 folders. Once i get the results, i can just check whatever file i need and press “Remove Selected”

Removing, does not necessarily mean getting rid of the file, that is why you can either delete to recycle bin, permanently delete or move all checked files to another folder.

 

Now lets say, your search returned 1000 duplicate entries, are you going to go through everything and check all by your self? Nope! That is when the handy Selection Assistant comes in to play!

It can make your life easier by specifying which files you want to delete, whether the file with the lowest bit rate, lowest sample rate or shortest length. (The option is to actually keep the opposite )

Or keep the newest/oldest or smallest/largest or by search pattern. When you click close after selecting the options to your heart’s content, just click remove selected files to get rid of them!

I anyway like the CRC option in the file search and it is the most used search method for me.

Duplicate Cleaner is a truly amazing piece of freeware, which perfectly does the job and saves your hard disk space and the money in your wallet!

Brilliant job, Digital Volcano
