fsearch is a high-performance desktop file search tool and filesystem indexing engine. It provides near-instant location of files and folders on a local filesystem by utilizing a background indexing system that monitors filesystem changes in real time.
The utility distinguishes itself through advanced query capabilities, including support for boolean search logic using AND, OR, and NOT operators, as well as regular expression and wildcard filtering. It allows for precise result refinement using literal character handling and specific search modifiers such as case sensitivity and exact matches.
The tool covers broad capability areas including metadata and property searching based on file size and modification date, folder structure analysis, and index scope management to control which directories are monitored. It also includes result management for sorting discovered items and integration for launching applications or opening files directly from the search results.
