Copernic desktop search malware9/25/2023 ![]() ![]() It is a resource hog, obviously not relevance sort, and its indexing is actually not the best but certainly not the worst. I have Copernic on my computer (mostly to see what the next "update" brings) but I practically never use it or X1. As a college professor with about 80 gb of pdfs alone on my computer, not counting word documents etc, this type of software is crucial for my research. If you are a "power user" this software is simply not for you. But DocFetcher is free, indexes better, has sorting, and is even portable. This is the single most important "category" of software for me and some thoughts for those wondering whether to buy this one. Make of that what you want but I don't appreciate it. ![]() I bought the software because of that response. This being said, (professionally-executed) relevance sort should indeed be a very good point FOR this tool, whenever this can/will be delivered.įarhang I was the one who asked in the "old comments" about Relevance Sort and was told that 2014 was the year it will happen. Now this is weird indeed: Why have a special list for just file names? Should it not be possible to index ANY given file name, of ANY file on your pc, independently of the specific (and, by CD, unreadable) file format, given the fact that even numerous free file search tools index/find ANY file name, or parts of them, in an ntfs or even fat file system - where's the difficulty here that motivates CD to specifically list those file formats of which (only?) it is able to index the names (alone)?įrankly speaking, I would prefer to buy sw with developers who are more straighhtforward than the above remarks seem to indicate (and let alone version-3 users' experience with version 4). Lots of file formats (hence the "big" total of 150 claimed there) are listed under the heading "CD will index their file names". Lots of file formats are listed under the heading "CD will index their metadata" but in fact, the term "metadata" there seems to have been (wrongly) used as a synonym for "content" (since "metadata" clearly designs something very different from "content", or then, where's the list of file formats whose content is indexed?) Now, trying to check possible progress being made in the meanwhile, on that field, I discovered that the list of "150 file formats" has been built up in a quite strange way: I had a look into the website, and yes, the info that the license is per computer, not per user is official, can be found there.Īlso, I checked for file formats there (in the past, I had the unpleasant experience that most of my (ok, more or less exotic) file formats were NOT integrated into the index. Peter schleifer Old comments are really instructive in this case, and there are just 11 of them, so checking them out is not difficult. It is nowhere as sophisticated as Copernic or X1 but hasthe most important feature. In the meantime, I keep using the FREE but sortable DocFetcher. ![]() Without a sort by relevance, the search is rather sales: is there anywhere on your road-map a real plan for sort by relevance? ![]() (By the way, they should make it MUCH faster and easier to batch exclude file types instead of having to click on every single one to remove). I have over 10,000 pdf that I need indexed and searched. But if you have an indexed search, I am baffled that there is no real sort. If I want pure search of file name, I use faster non-indexing software. What is extremely disappointing is that in version 4 (like all previous versions), there is no SORT by RELEVANCE. Overall, I found it just about as good as and among the best of any user paid friendly desktop search. Its index was bigger on my computer than X1 Desktop search (another good but paid software) for the same number of files. I have not tried ver 4 (just started) but have worked with ver 3 before and I am always looking for good desktop search.Ī few good things about it:This is a very good price for paid desktop search Copernic has removed the web search tab in ver 4 and that's a great addition by subtraction its general index was quite good in ver 3 (and I hope it hasn't dipped in 4).
