Top 15 Hddb File Search Alternative and Similar Softwares | Dec 2024

Hddb is a file search tool like Everything .

Everything has some problems; Hddb fixes them.

Hddb doesn't require admin permission when doing file search, so no UAC prompt is required on startup. UAC prompt is required only when building the database. You can even install a build service. When installed, no UAC prompt would be needed at all.

Hddb's database must be built manually. It will not auto scan file changes on startup. This is a feature, not a limitation, I hope you think so too.
