As you are using File Locator, does it also support other filetypes, such as .mdb, .dbf?
I am using X1 and have added .mdb, .dbf, .mmi, htm, etc.

X1 filetypes supported:

What is interesting about this is the type of support for the different filetypes. Does it index the content of the supported filetypes, or is it showing basic metadata like filenames, placement and sizes? If the software indeed indexed all information from every filetype... I would be impressed. I think the file type support shown, is just basic file metadata.

Can anyone using X1 confirm my suspicion, or prove me wrong?

The main Exselo Desktop program/tool is desktop based, but there is an Outlook add-in to access the tool from within Outlook. The reason for that is that people find that Exselo Desktop do a better/quicker job than the search feature inside of Outlook to find Outlook items, and wanted to be able to access Exselo Desktop while inside of Outlook.

Then again, with the latest release, adding the possibility to share parts of your search index and folder with people you invite, you have the possibility to allow them to do a distributed peer-to-peer search towards your information and vice versa if they have shared information with you. No longer just a private Desktop Search tool, you have the option to collaborate with friends and colleagues by easily share your index and files.

Hi,

I am working for Exselo. We have just released (February 1st) our 2.0 version of Exselo Desktop. It is 100% free with no limitations, and should be of help for many. No file size limitations, fast and even have a collaboration mode to  share information securely with colleagues or friends. This is of course possible to turn off, and you will then have a local desktop search product only.

Feel free to read more about it, download and try it out from our web page: Exselo Web Page

Regards,

Mojope

PS! With this release we published our new downloader. It is still brand new, so you might receive a warning from some browsers that the file is unknown, and you have to forcibly make your browser download the file.

You sure that it is "their", not "your" web page?

I am sure. Even though I know some of the people working in that company. I modified my post, and added a disclaimer so that there will be no misunderstanding as such.

Hi all

My current favorite is a tool called Exselo Desktop. They can handle all of my big documents, and is integrated with my Outlook in (for me) a natural manner.

Of course, it being blazing fast helps as well.

Download it from their web page and try for yourself: Exselo
