UltraFileSearch Lite quickly finds files, folders and text on your local, network, or external media. The program allows you to specify several file masks and drives/folders at the same time; it is able to sort them according to their properties (e.g. modified date) and find files that contain one or more specific words or sentences.
This utility does not use background indexing.
NOTE: Beyond version 5.3.0, the program is shareware. Linking to the last freeware "Lite" version. The shareware version has additional features.

v4.5.0.15327 released !
v4.4.1.15248
Whilst I do have a commercial licence for this, my personal favourite search utility is File Locator Pro.
v3.2.0.13283
No mention of the portable standard edition?
We should encourage all portable developers, this is even more important in an age of server apps which are little better than shortcuts or are worse.
Yes it is a portable payware version but a mention should be okay?
Something like "Alternatively a portable payware edition gives full standard features and can be used in business and for profit environ"
v3.2.0.13243
At first, this program seems to be OK. BUT LOOKING AT THE PICTURES ON THE WEBSITE, it is unsatisfactory. When searching for text in a file, it only shows only the file name, and not a preview of the text found. I agree with Lyon11111, AgentRansack is far superior to this program.
v3.2.0.13243
THIS one is a keeper! It detects my storage HDD whereas the other app I tried doesn't. (UltraSearch)
@Lyon11111 - I looked at AgentRansack. It hasn't been updated since March of 2010, and it isn't portable. Pass.
v3.1.0.13181
I have been using AgentRansack for many years and it does a great job. I recommend it over this lite version.
v3.1.0.12181
Shouldn't the entry be renamed to Ultra File Search Lite? BTW, v2.1.1.12019 is available.
V2.1.0.12009
For version 2.0.0.11335, the lite version is freeware. The standard version is shareware.
V2.0.0.11335
Wow.. this finds files very fast!
V1.0.5.11129
UltraFileSearch Standard V.5.4.0.19067 has been released at March 2019.
It's shareware (30 days) and it's name is UFS Standard.
On download page https://www.ultrafilesearch.com/download.html there are only Standard versions.
