I was able to confirm that it is useful when searching for “duplicates” or “pseudo files” about a particular file, but it is too inefficient for organizing files as it cannot arbitrarily group or extract from enormous files and list them.

UltraSearch: Find Your Files in Seconds | JAM Software GmbHīy the way, I have interested in this topic (article) so I tried “Czkawka”.
Sorting and extraction is easy, and files can be opened directly or by specifying an external application such as an image editor. It searches the Master File Table (MFT) on your hard disk directly, so there is no need for indexing, and it displays the search results clearly in just a few seconds. UltraSearch can search, extract, and edit all the files that exist locally, and has a file preview function that is very useful. It is “UltraSearch” that has shown unparalleled performance in organizing them (searching for duplicate files, renaming, moving, and deleting).
My photo collection is enormous, over 1 million files (3 terabytes). Search was quick during tests, even on an not-so-powerful Surface Go device from Microsoft. Just hit the search button in the interface to run the task on the selected folders and files. The similar images search, for instance, accepts a minimum file size and a parameter that defines how similar images need to be to be detected. Some file search operations display search parameters at the top.
