Beschreibung:

Features
Find files by name on your hard drives almost instantly
VERY Fast scanning! WizFile reads the master file table (MFT) directly from NTFS formatted hard drives so it's ready for use very quickly after start up.
Search by file name or full path name
Multiple search terms supported
Wild card file search (* and ? wild cards supported)
Monitors for file changes while active - your visible file search results will always be up to date
Keeps track of folder sizes - any changes made to the file system will automatically update the folder sizes
Does not require a separate database file - all file data is kept in memory

WizFile ist ein neues Tool von Antibody, dem wir ja schon Wiztree zu verdanken haben. Im Kurztest erwies sich die Suche als sehr schnell, ob man nun deswegen auf Everything verzichtet, ist wohl Geschmackssache.

v1.03

Memory use is significantly reduced (especially in the 64 bit version) and it will now attempt to swap out as much memory as possible to the paging file when it's not actively displaying search results. It should have minimal impact on any other memory hungry applications when it's running in the background.
Fixed bug that could crash WizFile if a lot of file changes were occurring while viewing a huge result set

WizFile 1.04 (11 April 2018)

Background file change monitoring updated to prevent any possible interference with other applications (e.g. renaming operations might have failed while WizFile was active)
Searching for certain Unicode characters would fail due to upper/lowercase conversion issues (fixed)
Files can now be selected by dragging a rectangle around them

[klodeckel]

v1.05 (18 May 2018)

"Monitor file system for changes" option added (on by default)
"Minimize to tray when closed" option added (on by default)
"Rename" function added (Right click on a file/folder and select "Rename" or press F2)
Improved background file monitoring - (less CPU use - better for slower PCs, more reliable)
Folder renaming was not being processed correctly (fixed)
folders created in the root would not be detected correctly (fixed)

WizFile 2.0 (8 June 2018)

Non NTFS drives now supported (will not be selected by default - select them via the "Select Drives..." option)
Individual folders/network shares can now be added to the search. Add a folder or network share by selecting "Select Drives..." then "Add folder".
To add a network share either select it or type in the share name, (e.g. \\servername\sharename) when browsing for a folder to add.
Note that high speed scanning is only available on NTFS drives - other drive types and folders will be scanned using the regular Windows method.
User defined filters now supported. Default filters for ALL, Audio, Video, Images, Compressed, Documents and Executables added.
Configure filters via the "Filters..." option
Double clicking on the "path" will now open an explorer window (same as selecting "Explore Folder" from right click menu)
Double clicking on the "path" while holding the ALT key will open a command prompt window at the file's location (same as selecting "Command Prompt Here" from right click menu)
Double clicking on any other column will open the file using the default Windows method
Click on a file name, pause, then click on it again to rename it (or just press F2)
"Monitor folder changes" option added (default off). If enabled, WizFile will keep folder sizes updated with any changes that occur within them. If enabled it will cause higher CPU usage when file system is very busy.
High DPI support (WizFile fully supports scaling on Windows 10)
Searches that include folder names or partial folder names now much faster
Background file monitoring improved (folder move operations now detected and processed correctly)
On screen results affected by file changes now update with greatly reduced CPU usage
Changing "selected drives" while a scan is in progress now works correctly (would not rescan previously)

WizFile 2.01 (10 June 2018)

File count display might be incorrect if "refresh" used repeatedly very quickly (fixed)

[klodeckel]

WizFile 2.02 (20 June 2018)

reduced memory use by around 45%
Clicking "Clear" will now clear results when even if a non empty custom filter is active
New "Clear search when minimized" option added (enabled by default). If enabled, minimizing the window will automatically clear the search results (as if "clear" was clicked)
(This reduces memory and CPU use to the absolute minimum when WizFile is running in the background)
Tray icon would not appear if WizFile configured to start with Windows

[klodeckel]

WizFile 2.03 (6 July 2018)

Search result list loading speed increased
Reduced CPU use when building results list (could cause audio/video playback to stutter previously)
Memory use reduced
Improved high DPI support (WizFile might have incorrectly displayed very large text on high DPI screens previously)
"Start with windows" option would not start WizFile on laptops running on battery power.
If you use WizFile on a laptop and want WizFile to start with Windows, then toggle the "start with windows" option off and back on again to correct this problem. This only has to be done once after upgrading to 2.03
Portable version will now use the default Windows language (if supported by WizFile) instead of defaulting to English

WizFile 2.04 (8 July 2018)

64 bit version might have crashed when displaying message dialogs on certain PCs (fixed)

[klodeckel]

WizFile 2.05 (5 September 2018)

Windows high DPI scaling support improved (fonts would appear far too large on some PCs when 200% or more scaling was enabled)
"Clear search when minimized" option did not toggle on and off correctly (fixed)
WizFile would be closed by the task scheduler after 3 days if configured to start with Windows. To correct this please disable the 'Start with Windows' option, then re-enable it. This only has to be done once.

Heute mal angetestet, finde ich das Tool recht brauchbar.

Konnte alle Netzwerk Shares in die Suche einbinden, dürften so 80.000 Dateien 22.500 Ordnern gewesen sein. Es dauerte ein paar Minuten, bis alles durchforstet war, und das trotz virtuellen Servern außer Haus, auf denen die Daten liegen. Danach konnte ich aber schnell nach Dateien o.ä. suchen.

Wünschenswert wären vielleicht noch
- eine Speicherung in eine DB, die bei Aufruf immer nur noch aktualisiert werden müsste.
- eine Export-Funktion für weitere Auswertungsmöglichkeiten und/oder
- weitere Filtermöglichkeiten nach z.B. Erstellungs- oder Änderungsdatum...

WizFile wird möglicherweise nicht immer korrekt gestartet, wenn es für den Start mit Windows konfiguriert ist (behoben).
