*Copernic Desktop Search* is an alternative to Windows search that aims to
make the search process quicker and easier to manage. Using Windows' built-in
desktop search is a bit of a struggle. The more information you have on your
computer, the slower it is and sometimes it can take a long time. Copernic
Desktop Search is a contender in the battle for the best desktop search tool
around. When you install the program, it will index your computer so it knows
what to search. This is an amazingly quick process. In fact, Copernic Desktop
Search was so quick that we thought it hadn't been done¡! It automatically
re-indexes after that, waiting for idle periods to make sure its search stays
up to date on your documents. The file indexing schedule is *completely
customizable*. Copernic Desktop Search interface has lots of ads - which it
euphemistically calls 'web results' - and you can't get rid of them. That's
not the case with the other aspects of the interface - there is a main search
box and results are displayed under tab-like icons that allow you to refine
by *music, files, images* and more. Once you select a certain area - say
emails - you can *refine further* by date/size, etc. All of these options are
customizable, and there are additional search options in the Copernic Desktop
Search taskbar and in a toolbar on your web browser. Undoubtedly the most
important aspect of any desktop search app is the results. Copernic Desktop
Search was *incredibly fast*, but sometimes missed results that seemed
obvious. Results improved when we manually updated the index, which makes us
think that special attention is required when configuring the indexing
options. In its favor, Copernic Desktop Search results are easy to see and
classify, and the multiple refining options make sifting through large
numbers of documents very easy. If you don't have that much to index however,
Copernic Desktop Search doesn't seem a huge improvement on alternative search
apps like *Google Desktop*. *Copernic Desktop Search provides fast indexing,
but isn't always accurate.*Download *Copernic Desktop Search 3.5.0* in
