I have a lot of notes in the form of:

  • txt
  • docx
  • markdown format file

I am looking for a tool that can:

  • quick search through file names
  • quick search through file contents
  • support doc editing with markdown syntax
  • run on Windows
  • preferably free.
  • preferably a one-stop solution.

Currently I am using Everywhere + AgentRansack. But with so many small files, the content search is slowing down. And I have to use other software for editing.

Have you tried the Notepad++ (Download) "Find in Files" application?

It's free, and I find it really fast especially since you can restrict the following parameters for a search:

Filters
Directory
Follow current doc
Subfolders
HiddenFolders

Plus Regular Exressions & Quick Extended items!
