Xobni down - the best file search alternatives
Yahoo has discontinued some of its products - the search tool Xobni is also down. We present the best file search alternatives that reliably replace the Xobni search service.
Lookeen: Extensive file search addon for Outlook
With the Outlook addon Lookeen you can search both your emails and your desktop for files and other content.
- Lookeen is an Outlook extension that helps you to search email accounts and local directories more precisely. A permanent live scan of your directories speeds up the file search.
- In addition to emails, contacts and appointments, the tool also searches the attachments of your saved messages. You can also extend the search to local paths to search your entire computer.
- After installation, you have 14 days to try Lookeen for free. The tool then costs a one-off fee of 60 euros if you want to continue using it.
Everything: alternative for local search
The free software Everything accelerates the local search on your computer.
- Everything constantly scans your computer for new files in order to deliver results in the shortest possible time for a search query.
- To further refine your search, Everything supports certain search terms. You can use it to define, for example, the file type or the length of the file extension you are looking for.
- Everything makes local searches easier, but is not compatible with Outlook or other email clients.
