FindRun Robot V1.05.12 (Find stuff by File Name)

The Portable Freeware Collection - FindRun Robot V1.05.12

"Find and Run Robot helps you rapidly find programs or documents from within the depths of the start menu (or other folders). Just start typing the first letters of the application you want to launch. As you type the best matches are shown. Then hit the number to launch the associated program."

This is an interesting app. Like a lite desktop search utility, it has a much lower footprint and is targeted at helping find things by file name.

My Start/Programs is SO full, it's not even funny. I have the folders somewhat organized, but still stuff is hard to find. And the desktop search tools are overkill just for this...

The paths it searches for files is fully customizable and the default paths are already setup for your/All Users Start, your Desktop, Recent, My Documents and Favorites.

So not only does this help file your programs, but also your bookmarks...

I've got it installed so we'll see...
