| Searching your computer for files (alternative
to window's search) |
- Everything
- Everything is a search engine for Windows that replaces
the normal Windows search with a much faster one.
Unlike Windows search, Everything initially displays
every file and folder on your computer. You can type
in a search filter to limit what files and folders
are displayed. Everything only uses file and folder
names and generally takes a few seconds to build its
database. 1,000,000 files will take about 1 minute.

| Alternative to Windows Explorer |
- Windows
File Explorer - It blows away the default windows
explorer. It has the folder viewer on the left then
the option to have two panes open. Each with its own
filter that is instantaneous. Publisher's description:
Windows File Explorer is a file manager for Windows
similar to Windows Explorer. But Windows File Explorer
uses a different approach: it features many options
that Microsoft's Windows Explorer is missing like
image preview and it has two fixed file views side
by side (but can be change to a single file view)
that is useful when copying many files from folder
to folder. You do not want to use another file manager!

| Process Management |
- Process
Explorer - Process Explorer is an advanced process
management utility that picks up where Task Manager
leaves off. It will show you detailed information
about a process including its icon, command-line,
full image path, memory statistics, user account,

a particular process you can list the DLLs it has
loaded or the operating system resource handles it
has open.
