   MasterSeeker > Voidtools' Everything!

   I 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.
