Default is "Everything" doing some mining?

OK. I read that happens so quickly since it simply uses the NTFS
change journal information.


Simple or not, it's very, very effective. Unless you need to search
file content, which I almost never to, it's by far the quickest,
easiest, most convenient tool I've ever used. I also have Agent Ransack
available, too, but it't been years since I fired it up. I use
Everything multiple times a day, every day.

As I understand it, Everything can't search FAT32 volumes (or
maybe it can, but just without any indexing).


Untrue.

Also, a simple search on file mod dates (between date xx and date
xy, simply checked off via checkboxes like in Agent Ransack),
would be nice. But I haven't looked further into it.


It's there.
