Scherlokk

Scherlokkis a lightning-fast file search utility built for precise and reliable search of every file which meets the search criteria. Music, pictures, bookmarks, documents, etc., can be found quickly and easily. Search can be done on any building volume, portable volume (pen drives, memory cards, USB drives), network drive (AFP, SMB, FTP), etc.

It does not matter if the searched file is hidden or the system. The file does not need to be indexed by macOS to be found by Sherlock.

Scherlokk calculates and displays all folders that fit in the range when searching with size range.

Why use this app rather than Spotlight:

• Scherlokk searches through 'real' files instead of Spotlight's index. The index is not always up to date and does not contain all files.

• High-speed search engine finds your files quicker than the competition.

• Scherlokk shows search results in a flat or hierarchical view which helps to find out which file you need and how files are located in the folders structure.

• Clean and easy-to-use interface.

Which files can Scherlokk find?

Since Sherlock is not based upon Spotlight's index and has a powerful search engine, it will find every file on any accessible volume in your computer.

Scherlokk can compare any files (text or binary) and displays their differences, taking into account insertions or deletions. It uses a sophisticated algorithm for finding similar blocks in both files and shows them as a list of differences.

Scherlokk has built-in decoders for the most popular string-formatted files. This includes PDF, DOC, DOCX, RTF, RTFD, XLS, and XLSX files. All other files are "raw" searched through.
