MasterSeeker KeypirinhaI used to love exploring alternative Windows Shells and Explorer alternatives. As a heavy power user and PC enthusiast, I needed more than what Windows Explorer and Windows Search had to offer. I used to parade voidtool's Everything until I gradually increased my storage by magnitudes of TBs. Voidtool's Everything is amazing, don't get me wrong-- but it struggled to index my years of project data and archives once I passed around 5TB... It even corrupted its own database file a handful of times... I really was pushing Everything to its limits with my excess storage sizes.
That's when I found MasterSeeker. I decided to leave Voidtools' Everything behind for one goal-- a new file search and file manager that didn't crash and freeze up while scanning for constant file changes and indexing them. I required a replacement for Windows Search that didn't struggle with the uncountable files that I create on a day-to-day basis. I was accepting of a program that ran in the background and indexed as a Windows Service, even though it wasn't elegant and I preferred portable software.
MasterSeeker is absolutely crushing the competition for my multiple computers. The software is portable (which means it runs on any Windows PC from a USB thumbstick). I've even deployed/tested it via Google Drive/Cloud Drives. It loads the initial index faster and more consistently than the competition. It has never corrupted itself even once (unlike the competition). It's been years since I first found Everything and after switching to MasterSeeker (2 years and counting) I haven't looked back since.

Keypirinha (a launcher) works well with Everything. Both are free. The former hasn’t been updated for a few years, but it still works for launching applications, performing quick calculations, currency conversion, etc. [1]: https://keypirinha.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 1 day ago
Https://keypirinha.com/ there is no update for a long time but this one works perfectly for me. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
Keypirinha for me https://keypirinha.com It's been a while since it was updated last, but since it works, does that matter? - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
I'm sure there are good launchers on windows that would work better for you. I think I used Keypirinha when I still had a Windows partition and liked it. Source: 12 months ago
I wrote an entire plugin for Keypirinha to index Steam games so I can launch counter-strike without touching my mouse. We are not the same. Source: 12 months ago
