I had a terrific file searcher called EVERYWHERE but when my disk was formatted I lost it. Does anyone know how to recover it or would you recommend a simple file searcher please.

Is this under Windows XP or Vista? They have their own "Windows Search" systems to do that.

Thank you for your reply. I use Windows XP and I use File search now and again but the program I had (perhaps I should have called it (File Finder) was a great file finder.

Agent Ransack (free) and the paid-for version (Filelocator Pro) are excellent
