To be clear, this is still a freeware program with an enormous amount of functionality that I'm both very glad to have and is not available even in commercial options, but I just want to note some of the hoops I've had to jump through.ĭocFetcher has been able to pick up some of the slack by expanding it's base memory (most users won't see this but I have an enormous local file collection), but Exselo still has an outstanding Outlook and image search component that's hard to live without once you've tried it.
Exselo desktop update#
and the update link didn't work - I had to run to the home page and grab a full copy. When there are updates, they are mandatory and prompted repeatedly in one session so "Update Later" doesn't really mean much.Needless to say, this wasted a lot of time and electricity. Fast forward a few hours later and I'd uninstalled and reinstalled the entire program, which includes re-running a system scan (lost between reinstall) to re-check roughly 500k files.
Exselo desktop password#
I tried resetting the password and got an "An error occurred try again later" message. The last time this ran, I entered a username and password and doesn't accept either.
Exselo desktop download#
Incidentally, this is also where Exselo Desktop is available for download if anyone else have need for the product. If you are interested to know more, or have ideas or features you want implemented feel free to contact us, either here or through our web pages at. The actual Exselo Desktop program itself is a modern. Knowing that we index everything within your documents (whatever size your computer can handle), the search index size can become quite big, thus the memory usage. We are using Elasticsearch as a search engine, which requires Java. In regards of Exselo Desktop being Java-based, that is not entirely correct. We have just started the test phase of the next release and will release when that phase has ended successfully. We are already looking at "NEAR" operators, and will do our best to have it in the next release.
The next release will be faster, sturdier, have several more features and overall be a better product. It is freeware, and we have no plans on making it a paid product. I am affiliated with Exselo were we are busy making ready the next release of Exselo Desktop, and then some.Įxselo Desktop is 100% free to download and use for everyone without any restrictions.
Exselo desktop portable#
Status: Not portable (installs system service)įirst of all, I would like to thank you for the kind words in regards of Exselo Desktop. I'm excited about some of the other features such as peer-to-peer collaborative search (that would be huge where I work) but I'm a little worried that development has stalled as there's nothing new on the site since last year. * It's Java-based so it's RAM hungry (over 300megs) * Several hiccups working with Outlook 2016, but is able to search Outlook emails * You can set it to very low (below 1%) CPU usage. License: freemium, but nothing you'll miss the word "portable" and "freeware" in the same paragraph but not necessarily the same file), it would beat out X1 Search. Anyway, it's one of the better Desktop Search tools I've tested. There weren't may differences between the two programs apart from an image search and lots of nice interface extras. The currently free program has a lot of features and capabilities not found in commercial offers.Īlthough the program shares a lot in common with DocFetcher and seems to handle a larger file volume (can handle 200+ gigs of documents). Other issues are discussed in the thread.Įxselo is a "desktop" search program that searches a wide set of files across your computer and provides quick results. However, the program takes up so many system resources, I recommend running it on a separate computer and having it index a network share. It is currently free and still very useful if you need to do research on a large number of files and Outlook emails. Update: for reasons discussed later in the thread I no longer use Exselo.
