Copernic Desktop Search review Editors Choice Award

Wednesday 1 February 2006, 5:42 PM

So much better than Google Desktop


I don't want it to search the internet - just my hard drive(s). Google Desktop Search only searches the first few thousand words of files, and cannot search for fragments of file names (other than the opening characters). Copernic is not so restricted.

(Also, GSD is bloated: I disagree with the ZDNet reviewer - please do NOT add image viewers and such like to Copernic)
