Find the file before you remember the folder
Search across indexed drives as you type, then continue working with the result in place.
Windows File Explorer was built to cover every kind of file task. GrimDex was built for file-heavy work where folders open quickly, search happens in place, and every action stays in one workspace.
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.
Our current test build listed the measured directory in 2.9 ms. Full release methodology will be published with v1.
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.
Start with the full 14-day trial. 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.
