Designed for the Windows operating system, the free desktop search software neoSearch will help you find anything that’s stored on your computer – that file you can’t seem to find, or that application that you want to run, for example. It will take about a minute for neoSearch to index your full system. Then type a query in the search box and neoSearch will quickly display the search results.

The neoSearch installation file is a very lightweight 864KB; a less than 1MB download will complete in a blink, even if you have to contend with a less than spectacular internet connection. Run the installation file and a setup wizard will launch and guide you through the installation process. You can install the application on top of Windows Server 2003 and 2008, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.

Once the installation process is complete and you first launch the application, you will see a prompt that tells you that by default neoSearch indexes very little of your system and invites you to perform a full system index. The full system index will take about a minute to complete according to the developer; it took significantly less than that during our tests. After that, all searches take but milliseconds. Results can be displayed as live results that keep changing as you type your query, or as a static detailed list that is generated at the end of sending the query to the software.

You can manually get neoSearch to index your system, or you can set it up so this task is performed automatically. neoSearch can automatically index your system on a daily, weekly, fortnightly, or monthly basis. You can also specify what you want to be indexed and what you don’t want to be indexed.

neoSearch is offered for free. If you like the application and you want to support its development, consider making a donation.

Easily and quickly find anything on your computer with the help of neoSearch, a properly good desktop search software application for Windows.

Pros

Takes little time to download and install the application. Takes little time to index your system as well. Manually or automatically index your system. See results as you type them in the search box. neoSearch is free.

Cons

The search function in the Windows 7 start menu offers similar functionality.
