What is Indexer++?

Indexer++ is a powerful open-source desktop search utility for Windows that enables users to quickly locate files and folders buried deep within their computer's file system. Its core search engine, written in C++ 11/14, leverages the Windows API and STL to deliver high-speed performance and efficient memory usage. Unlike standard Windows search, Indexer++ directly accesses the NTFS file system's master file table, granting it the ability to search the entire file system and even uncover system and hidden files.
