Editors’ Review<\/h2>\n

The built-in Windows search utility typically does a decent job of finding the occasional misplaced file, but it’s not really made for heavy-duty searching. Agent Ransack, however, is. This highly customizable tool lets users search with a number of parameters that aren’t a part of the Windows search utility, and it works quickly to boot.<\/p>\n

The program’s interface is plain and intuitive. Users can search file names or the text within files; specify the file size; search within a range of dates that the file was modified, created, or last accessed; and select whether they want to match cases. The program shows the search results in one pane and search statistics–the number of items searched and found, and the length of the search–in another. We found that Agent Ransack repeatedly located files that the Windows search tool did not, and we didn’t have to wait a terribly long time for the results. We were also impressed by the fact that although Agent Ransack is easy to use, it comes with a very thorough and well-written Help file. It’s suitable for novices who know simply that they want a more powerful search tool than what Windows provides, but it’s also a good choice for more-advanced users, or those who would like to learn more about searching. Overall, we think that Agent Ransack is a good choice for just about everybody.<\/p>\n

Agent Ransack installs politely but leaves a folder behind upon removal. We recommend this program to all users.<\/p>\n
