Everything paired with AstroGrep (or your favorite grep program) is the ultimate pair for searching on Windows. We pretty much force new devs to install these otherwise we watch them struggle for way too long.

Everything is a godsend and ought to be built into Windows.

Agent Ransack (free for commercial use) and FileLocator Pro (paid, has near-instant indexed search) are the go to grep alternatives for Windows on my dev team. https://www.mythicsoft.com/

I also hear VS Code has ripgrep built in, but I haven’t used it extensively.

I use RipGrep with it.
