Methodox Everywhere lists every file on every drive and searches all of them while you type. Not the folder you are in. Not the places something decided to index. Everywhere.
Results for one word, across every drive, as it was typed.
Instant
Everywhere reads what the file system already knows about your disks instead of crawling them, so the first run takes seconds rather than the hours a background indexer wants. After that it stays current on its own as files are created, renamed and deleted.
Every search runs over the whole catalogue at once. There is nothing to wait for, no progress bar, and no results that arrive late — the list is complete by the time you have stopped typing.
Type part of a name. Type two words and get what matches both. Type part of a path and get everything under it.
By name, folder, size or date, over millions of results, without waiting for the list to catch up.
Cloud files
A cloud folder lists files whose contents are not on your machine. They have names, sizes and dates like any other, and opening one costs a download — which on a slow connection, a metered one or a plane is not a small thing.
Everywhere tells the difference. A file whose contents are elsewhere is drawn a step back from the rest of the list, so you can see at a glance which results you can actually open. One menu item removes them from every search entirely.
The same search with cloud-only files hidden.
Folder sizes
Windows will tell you, eventually, one folder at a time. Everywhere already knows: every folder on every drive carries the size of everything inside it, and you can sort by it.
Ask for folders over a gigabyte, sort them largest first, and you have the answer to where the disk went — in about as long as it takes to read this sentence.
Search language
Most searches are a word or two. When one is not enough, there is a small language for saying what you mean — and the built-in help lists all of it without leaving the window.
Right-click any result and search inside its folder without typing a thing.

Everywhere works the way it does because it uses features that belong to Windows and to the NTFS file system. That buys the speed, and it sets the limits.
A light theme too, and text that scales as far as you need it to.
A single download. Nothing to configure before it is useful.
