Searching is Much Easier with FileLocator

Although Microsoft have made great progress in Windows development so far, but there's something lack in the development, it's in the file searching section. I have experience on using Windows Vista and Windows 7, I must say that both of these operating systems are better from Windows XP in many ways, except Windows Vista slower performance. But still, I miss Windows XP's file searching which is full of information and a lot quicker than Windows Vista and Windows 7 have by default.
Luckily, I found FileLocator to replace the built-in searching software in Windows Vista and Windows 7. It provides us with good details and less time-consuming in file searching. Based on my experience, I'm quite satisfied with this software, this is very useful software and I think I'm gonna use it over and over again in my daily computing.
Instead of using its PRO version, currently I'm using its free version called FileLocator Lite which is You can download it from here. Mythicsoft Ltd as the company of these amazing software so far has made FileLocator PRO, FileLocator Network, Agent Ransack and FileLocator Lite. You can find-out more details of information here.

How to Make The List of Files in a Folder

Step  1.  Open Command Prompt (in RUN box, type cmd)
Step 2. Then go to the folder you want to make the list. Here I give examples folder named "CD Programming" that is on drive "D: \".
Step  3.  Type "D: " (without the quotes, and then you hit ), and type "CD Programming "
Step  4.  Type DIR *.* / S / B> TableOfContents.txt (the command is intended to show all files in the folder that you select and include subfolders).
Or
DIR *. doc / S / B> TableOfContents.txt  (This command is for displaying only word files (. Doc)).

Have You seen the result yet? Please do some practice Youself to develop it.
 
PS:  To find commands or help, type "DIR /?".

Get Rid of Annoying Files/Folders with Unlocker

Maybe You already knew or heard about this software which I personally need to make a review. It's called UNLOCKER. I just can't resist to use this very helpful software, coz it always help me to get rid the nasty files/folders that just too stubborn and persistent so it can't be deleted with ordinary ways. You may find one of these messages given by Windows when You try to delete nasty files/folders: "Cannot delete Folders: It is being used by another person or program, Close any program that might be using the file and try again. Cannot delete file: Access is denied. There has been a sharing violation. The source or destination file may be in use.  Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use", etc. Save all these trouble, just install UNLOCKER, it's small-sized, quick, less memory consumed, compatible with Windows 7, and the best of all, it's free. The usage is so simple, just right the nasty files/folders, then UNLOCKER's shell menu will poping-up, the option later lies in Your hand. Fantastic!!
