Editor's review

Increasing amounts of stress at work is making us more and more forgetful as something or the other keeps skipping our mind; whether it is something as simple as car keys or as important as credit card, we simply cannot fathom why we are so forgetful. High pressure jobs might take the credit for this one as we strive to store up so much on our minds that we end up making things more chaotic in the process. Given a case of locating an important file on the system, it is quite obvious in our minds that we have stored up the file on the system, but we forget the folder or drive that makes it further difficult. Folder Scout 1.0.208 Beta 2 allows the user to relax on this front as it facilitates instant access to any folder.

Folder Scout opens with a bright blue hued interface with the major options placed at the top and the main screen displaying intuitive controls to locate any files on the system and search for any file easily. Program provides immediate access to any drive on the system and helps to avoid any tedious folder tree maneuvering and search that allows the user to focus and concentrate on the other important tasks and duties. The speedy Predictive Search Engine facilitates accessing any folder on the PC by typing in the name and with a single mouse click. Moreover, the application also does not slow down the system by any chance does not affect its performance and works automatically to track changes in recently updated files and folders.

Overall, Folder Scout 1.0.208 Beta 2 definitely makes it easier for the user to locate any important document or file on the system drive and hence gets a rating of four points for its impressive working.
