- Google has only launched a new search application for Windows
- It comes with a built -in search tool that can quickly find your files.
- It is currently experimental and is not available for everyone
I use both Windows 11 and Macos Tahoe in my daily life, and comparing them allows me to see how they are composed of each other. An area where Windows is far behind is the search (especially now that Apple has turned on), and if there is an aspect that guarantees that the hair is removed when using the Microsoft system, it is this.
But hope is on the horizon. It is not a Microsoft update that fixes the Windows poor quality search tool, but in the form of a Google application that collects the slack. This is because Google has just launched a new experimental application that carries the company’s search skill to its desk.
As described in an official blog post, the Google application has reached Windows, and has a built -in search function that can scan its installed applications and computer files to locate what you are looking for. Your search can also cover Google Drive and the Web, in case you are not only looking for something on your PC, while the functionality of Google lenses included allows you to search, search and translate anything on your screen.
Putting Google search skills to use on your computer already hopes that you will be overcome by the Windows search tool (although that would not be difficult). But the cherry cherry is the way I invoke the Google search box: pressing the alternative and spatial keys.
That mimics the macOS space-space shortcut, which starts the similar search tool for Spotlight, and gives it an easy key combination to remember that you can mention anywhere and at any time you need it.
Showing promise
I have become so fed up with the lousy Windows search tool that I have given up for a long time, and instead now I use an application called EveryTHing.
This index its units and obtains real -time search results as it writes, and its power and ease of use have made it one of my favorite obligation applications. However, the problem is that everything looks and feels quite outdated, and can take time to load as any new change index.
I hope that the Google Desktop application can one day replace everything on my PC, giving me a MAC -like search tool that is easy to launch but deeply powerful.
That said, Google’s application is an experimental offer at this time, so it might not be without its fair part of errors and peculiarities. It is also only available through the Google Search Labs program, which is not available for everyone: users based in the United Kingdom as I cannot use it yet, for example.
Still, it seems that the application has many promises. If you can provide a more competent alternative to the Windows built -in search tool, I am in favor.
