I loved the search functionality within Windows 7.  It worked beautifully for me.  I even abandoned Google Desktop Search, which I had been a huge fan of in Windows XP days.  I now find that the product has been discontinued.

Windows 8 and Windows 10 Search is just not doing it for me.  Win10 Search is less horrible than 8, but not much.  Plus I want to be able to index network locations which Win10 does not seem to allow.

What is everyone else using if not the baked-in stuff?  I'll Google if required of course but in this case am looking for recommendations.
