I wanted a local desktop search to:

  1. find old data in files
  2. search for text
  3. find data in digital books I had.
  4. Save searches for later

Currently going to test recoll. Update: pretty not good so far, will keep trying. Using Everything don’t think it searches in files. May try DocFetcher again or search elsewhere
