Search for files and registry data
There are no bells and whistles in WinFindr. It is simple but efficient. This is how it looks like.
Let’s say you have cute cat pictures 😺 stored somewhere in your Windows PC. As everyone should. But you cannot remember where they are. You can easily find them with WinFindr:
Screenshot 1 - The main search screen. The and logic mode allows you to find files whose name contains “cute” and “cat” and “.jpg”
Perhaps you are not sure what file type these pictures are. That’s not a problem either:
Screenshot 2 - You can also ask WinFindr to search for files based on their type.
Natural language search
Searching for files based on their name is easy when you know what you are looking for. But what if you don’t?
WinFindr can help you with that too. You can search for files using natural language.
For example, let’s say you are looking for an invoice that you created for a client called Désirée but you don’t remember the exact name of the file. You can simply search for “invoice” and “Désirée”, enable the natural language search mode and WinFindr will find it for you even if the file is named with these words but in different spelling.
Screenshot 3 - WinFindr also supports natural language search.
With this search mode, WinFindr found the missing invoice:
Screenshot 4 - WinFindr finds the missing invoice with “Désirée” but it would also find it with "Desiree".

Download WinFindr
What are you waiting for? Download WinFindr now. Some people say it’s the best innovation since sliced bread. Some people say that was a dad joke. Give it a try and you can decide.
WinFindr Pro
Yes, WinFindr is freeware. However, it would really mean a lot to me if you could consider supporting the development of this program by buying the Pro version.
WinFindr Pro comes with access to dedicated technical support as well as some additional Pro features, such as the support for command line parameters.
And if you buy it, I could also afford to invest into coffee and I work much better when caffeinated. Thanks!
