FSearch como alternativa Linux ao Everything
Atualizado em
Nossa avaliação
FSearch is a good replacement for Everything if you primarily need fast, real-time file name searching on a local system with a clean GTK interface. It delivers near-instant results as you type, handles large directory trees well, and uses minimal resources. While it lacks Everything’s network indexing and some advanced CLI tooling, FSearch covers core functionality well for desktop users. It’s best suited for those who value speed and simplicity over enterprise features. Not ideal if you rely heavily on command-line automation or cross-platform indexing.

O que muda

- Everything offers more advanced command-line control and scripting
- FSearch lacks Everything’s NTFS USN journal integration for real-time updates
Abrindo seus arquivos do Everything
FSearch does not support importing Everything index files or .es databases. There is no known converter or compatibility layer. If you’ve exported search lists from Everything as text or CSV, those can be used manually, but FSearch does not read Everything’s native format. Migration requires reindexing directories on first run.

Como instalar o FSearch no Linux
flatpak install flathub io.github.cboxdoerfer.FSearchsudo apt install fsearchsudo pacman -S fsearchPerguntas frequentes
Does FSearch index file contents like Everything?
No, FSearch only indexes file and folder names, just like Everything. It does not search inside documents or file contents by default.
Can I use FSearch from the command line?
FSearch is primarily graphical. While it has limited CLI options for launching with search terms, it doesn’t offer the full scripting support that Everything provides via its command-line tools.
Why can’t FSearch find all my files when installed via Flatpak?
Flatpak’s sandbox restricts access to most of the filesystem. You’ll need to grant permissions via Flatseal or use a native package (e.g., from APT or pacman) for full system indexing.
