One of the biggest Windows habits I’ve had to break is using file explorer to open documents and files. This was because memorizing file paths is way faster than using search. Search in Windows has never been good, because it’s always been weighted toward what Microslop wants you to find. And the index goes to shit if a user does something unexpected like saving, moving, or deleting files.
Linux search just works. If I know the file name, there is no reason to open a file explorer at all. Just mash the power key and start typing.
Everything for windows is hands down the most useful tool
I convinced our IT guy to index the company and host a server so now I can tell people where they stored shit even. In fact, it allows me to profile entire project lifespans and their respective evolution through our company.

Instructions unclear. Now my pc is turned off.
Did you try to modify the sleep settings and put your computer to sleep again Elijah?
I use ‘everything’ by void tools for most file searching. It doesn’t index content but I find files way faster and more reliabily than Windows search.
