Find the file before you remember the folder
Search across indexed drives as you type, then continue working with the result in place.
GrimDex reads the NTFS file table directly and keeps its index current through the Windows change journal. Results appear in the file view as you type, so search stays inside the same workspace as browsing and file actions.
That avoids a recursive directory walk every time you search and keeps the results in the working view while you type.
Search across indexed drives as you type, then continue working with the result in place.
Use real shell menus, third-party context actions, and drag and drop on your files.
Tabs, split panes, stacked panes, docking, and keyboard navigation stay in the same application.
Open a folder, expand its contents in place, search across indexed drives, preview a document, and return to the same workspace.
The evaluation is free and fully functional. Paid licenses are perpetual, and eligible versions keep working after an update window ends.
The first public version is for people who feel the delay every day: developers, sysadmins, photographers, modders, and anyone else with too many directories and not enough patience.
