Frequently Asked Questions

FileTrace searches file contents, not just names. It reads text inside your system-generated documents (like PDFs from Word, text files, etc.), which Windows Search often doesn't index fully or as quickly.

Yes! FileTrace can index and search network drives, external hard drives, and cloud storage sync folders (like Dropbox, Google Drive) that appear as local folders.

No. FileTrace works entirely locally on your computer. Your files, index, and search data never leave your machine, ensuring complete privacy.

FileTrace uses content-based hashing (MD5) to identify identical files. It compares the actual file contents, not just names or sizes, ensuring accurate duplicate detection.

FileTrace supports content search for PDF, DOCX, DOC, PPTX, PPT, XLSX, XLS, TXT, MD, and CSV. It does not read text from scanned images or documents that were printed and then scanned.
