Possible Duplicates:
What's the fastest desktop search tools you've used on Windows?
What's a good alternative to Windows' “Search for Files and Folders”?

Google Desktop Search does not allow us specify the index file folders path.

Is there any other better alternatives to Google Desktop Search.

PS: I'm using Windows 7.

Thanks in advance.

The built in Windows search is pretty full-featured and allows user control over indexed directories and it is a default component of Windows. Is there a reason that you're not using that?

It does not support content-search. – Jichao Sep 29 '10 at 16:07

@Jichao - If there is a specific feature that you are looking for, it would be helpful to post it in your question. We're not mind readers. – MDMarra Sep 29 '10 at 16:52

There's a free version for private/non-commercial use.
