Hi all.

I am after a good FREE hard drive file searcher tool which has the facility to export the results. I had CoolFind which was a 30 day evaluation version and thought it was great but I was after the same type of thing but free!!

Does anyone have any sugestions or does anyone know a way of getting the search facilty in Windows to export results?

Thanks.

I don't know about a utility but the command line is your friend...

e.g. dir c:\*.txt /o/s >dir.doc will export a list of all text files in C drive to the "dir.doc" file.
or
dir c:\readme.* /o/s >dir.doc will export a list of all files called readme (.txt or .doc or .htm or .rtf etc) to the dir.doc file.
